WBHS Commencement Ceremony Changes

WBHS Family,

The graduation ceremony time for the Class of 2026 will change from 8pm to 7pm on Thursday, May 21.

While Apalachee High School and Barrow Arts and Sciences Academy have announced plans to hold their ceremonies at the Akins Ford Arena, our location will remain at the WBHS stadium for the 2025-2026 school year. We will continue to screen everyone with the weapon detection system and enforce a clear bag policy.

No decision has been made yet on whether the location will change for future graduations, but if it does, we will work to make sure the beloved tradition of crossing the 50-yard line carries on.

We will send out specific details concerning the ceremony to students and families as we get closer to May. Please send any questions my way.

Thank you,
Principal Lichliter
