Portales Highschool Graduation Ceremony 2022

The school board has approved a PHS graduation for 7 p.m. May 28 at Greyhound Stadium.

"At this point, we dont know what the graduation rules will look like by the time we get to May, but we think with it being outdoors it will be something acceptable at that time" said Superintendent Johnnie Cain.

With COVID-19 concerns still high last May, the district decided to hold its PHS graduation in the Ram Athletic Center parking lot with everybody mostly limited to their vehicles.

"I really think this is a good opportunity, Cain said about hosting graduation outside at Greyhound Stadium, to do something different  and see if this is something we'd want to do in the future".
