2025 District 186 GRADUATE WALK THE HALLS
Be a part of history! It is the 3rd annual 186 Graduate Walk The Halls!!
What is Grad Walk The Halls?
Seniors, it’s your time to shine and inspire.
Get ready for one of the most meaningful moments of your senior year—the Grad Walk! You’ll hop on a bus with seniors from all three high schools to visit elementary and middle schools across the district. (Pictures of 2024 Grad Walk Day2)
Heads up: you won’t be choosing your tour route. This isn’t a reunion—it’s about representing all of District 186 and showing the younger students what’s possible.
As you walk through the halls in your cap and gown, younger students will be cheering you on. To them, you’re not just graduates—you’re role models.
Your presence matters. Your story matters. Let’s show the next generation what’s waiting for them if they keep going.
Let’s make it count.
