Williamson County Schools sets high school graduation dates for third week of July

New graduation dates for the 10 high schools in the Williamson County Schools district have been scheduled for July, with eight of the schools holding ceremonies at the Williamson County Ag Expo Center.

After the coronavirus outbreak led to the cancellation of the original graduation dates in May, the district sent a survey to families asking their preference: to hold a virtual graduation ceremony in May, or plan to hold a physical ceremony in July. Respondents favored July by 85%.

Members of the WCS school board voted unanimously in April to amend the graduation window and allow for the change in dates. The ceremonies are contingent upon social distancing guidelines in place at the time of the events.
