Dr. Jo Ann Bludau, Superintendent Graduation Message from HS Principal, Darrin Bickham Senior Class of 2020 and Parents, On May 5th, the Texas Education Agency released some heavy guidelines regarding graduation ceremonies. We are working to make everything happen that we are required to do for the awesome ceremony on June 5th. It’s going to be an amazing evening that you deserve. Sadly, we have to cancel the “school sponsored senior parade” that was to occur on May 16th. The T.E.A. guidelines state, “Graduates may only be brought together for one event.” We aren’t even allowed to have a rehearsal. It will be a great ceremony anyway. If you or your parents have any questions, please call me anytime at (979) 942-0142 or email me at darrin.bickham@hisdbrahmas.org. We are also looking into providing more than six tickets like previously planned. I will mail a letter home next week with complete details regarding the graduation ceremony. The cap and gown pick-up was a lot of fun. Take care and Go Brahmas! Mr. B HISD COVID-19 Wednesday Update April 29th HHS Graduation has been set for June 5th at 7:30 p.m. at Hallettsville Brahma Memorial Stadium. There will be some adjustments made to the graduation ceremony to keep everyone safe. These adjustments are being developed. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines and Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) minimum recommended health protocols can be found at https://gov.texas.gov/uploads/files/organization/opentexas/OpenTexas-Report.pdf.
