Graduation Celebration

student after graduation

Graduating students are recognized by their achievements and receive identity-based graduation cords. 

The Hilyard Center Graduation Celebration honors graduating students from various backgrounds.

Identity Cords

  • The Hilyard Identity cords are tri-colored to represent the various identities of our students.
  • Indigenous cords are white, black, yellow, and red to represent the four directions on the medicine wheel.
