This time last year, high school seniors in the New Braunfels and Comal independent school districts had little idea what expect from their commencements.
How and when they would happen were among the top queries after COVID-19 canceled ceremonies â scheduled years before for Texas State Universityâs Strahan Arena â and how the pandemic might shape graduations for years to come.
The Classes of 2020 got to experience both virtual and live graduations hosted successfully at high school stadiums that will welcome Classes of 2021 for events Wednesday through Saturday.Â
The weather will cooperate again this year, as after days of rain, clear skies with less humid conditions are forecast for the 2,300 grads set to walk stages and receive diplomas, beginning today with Comal Academyâs 85 seniors at 7 p.m. at Davenport High Schoolâs auditorium.
