Graduation dates set for Hardin County Schools

The Hardin County Schools Board of Education announced a change to the school calendar and approved dates for the district’s high school graduation ceremonies during their board meeting last week.

Friday, May 24 will be the final day of school for K-12 students. The district says ending the year on the 24th allows the school year to finish on a Friday and before Memorial Day. The board is excusing three days of school that were missed due to inclement weather. The district says they traditionally schedule more school days than required by state law.

Graduation for John Hardin High School will be held at 7 p.m. on May 24 at Bulldog Stadium.

Central Hardin High School will hold graduation at 11 a.m. on May 25 at Bruin Gym.

North Hardin High School will hold graduation at 6 p.m. on May 25 at the North Hardin football field, Ray Story Stadium.

Hardin County High School families have appointments for graduates to walk across the stage and receive their diplomas beginning at 9 a.m. on May 18.
