The Tangipahoa Parish School Board approved the 2026 graduation schedule as provided by Southeastern, with one correction to practice dates. Staff told the board that the practice dates listed for Hammond and Ponchatoula in the packet were incorrect and should read May 4, 2026, rather than May 9. The board voted to approve the schedule with that correction.
Board members discussed the difficulty Southeastern faces in scheduling many graduations at its venue and noted the earlier dates should help avoid conflicts such as IB events and parking congestion. No further action was required beyond approving the corrected schedule.
