Graduation is still on for today at 6:00 pm. It will be in the high school gym. Looking forward to seeing all of you! Class of 2025!
As staff checked the school grounds this morning, it was discovered that Redwood Elementary has no power. Due to this power outage, Hartford Public Schools will be closed today, Friday May 16. Graduation is still planned for tonight at 6pm, as the High School still has power.
Mientras el personal revisaba las instalaciones de la escuela esta mañana, se descubrió que la Escuela Primaria Redwood no tiene electricidad. Debido a este corte de luz, las Escuelas Públicas de Hartford permanecerán cerradas hoy, viernes 16 de mayo. La graduación está programada para esta noche a las 6 p. m., ya que la escuela preparatoria aún tiene electricidad.
Tomorrow is the Class of 2025 Senior Graduation @ 6PM! 💚🤍
The graduation ceremony will take place outside. We are keeping an eye on the weather. If there are any changes, graduation will be moved inside.
