Blanco High School Graduation Details
Date and Time: Friday, June 2nd @ 8:00 p.m. - Panther Stadium (Panther Gymnasium is the backup if the weather moves us indoors)
There are no tickets needed if we have it outdoors as planned. If we have to move it inside, we will hand out tickets for graduating students at the practice on Friday morning.
We have secured a 40 ft x 20 ft stage for the football field so no worries there and we have partnered with the same company who live-streamed last year's graduation. I will share the link for the live stream as we get closer to the ceremony. They will be live streaming it regardless if it is indoors or outdoors.
Seniors will practice the graduation on Friday, May 26th and then again on Friday, June 2nd. You can see details below for the breakdown of the practices and the day of.
Student Transcripts
All transcripts are ready if the students would like to see them or need them. There is a QR code the student will scan and it will direct them to a Google Form to fill out and then we will call them to the office to pick them up. This saves the front office ladies from constantly having people come in and request and it gives us a way to track who has and hasn't picked theirs up.
Thank you for your patience in getting those done and done right. If you think there is a mistake on your student's transcript, please have them come to the office and we will sit down and go over it with them.
Loss of Credit due to Hours Owed
We will be withholding credit for these courses till the hours are made up. Hours can be made up either through Saturday School sessions or coming early/staying late with teachers.
Attendance
We still have students who owe hours from last semester. We have noted their transcripts and they are missing the credits for the classes they have excessive absences in. See the information below on how to make up the hours they owe either from last semester or this current semester.
If your child has a fever, please keep them at home. If you need to schedule a doctor's visit (dentist, eye, health, etc.) and can make it after 9:30 a.m., that would be GREAT! Our official attendance time is 9:00 a.m. each day so if your student is late or absent, they will not count towards our ADA (Average Daily Attendance).
If your child misses any single class more than 9 times, they will start to accumulate "hours owed" for that class. If they finish the semester owing hours, we will be withholding the credit for that class on their transcript until they make up the hours. More on makeup hours are below...
