Thank you for supporting your Hendrix student’s endeavors in the classrooms and beyond. We look forward to celebrating each student’s accomplishments.
Location Change
The commencement location has been changed to the Wellness and Athletic Center due to the extremely wet ground and the forecast of possibly more rain on Saturday, May 9. The Wellness and Athletic Center will accommodate all of our guests. Parking is limited at the Wellness and Athletic Center, but there will be parking all around the campus. There will be shuttles going to all of the parking lots picking up guests and transporting them to the Wellness and Athletic Center.
The reception will take place at the Wellness and Athletic Center in the recreational gymnasium.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding commencement. We look forward to celebrating this special day with you and your family!
Best wishes,
