Hamilton Southeastern Schools will celebrate 1,754 graduates this week as Fishers High School and Hamilton Southeastern High School hold commencement ceremonies at the Fishers Event Center.

For the second consecutive year, both high schools will hold graduation at the Fishers Event Center, giving graduates and their families a shared community venue to mark the milestone.

District officials say the Class of 2026 leaves Hamilton Southeastern Schools with a strong record of academic achievement and preparation for the next step after high school.

Combined data from the two high schools shows a projected graduation rate of 99 percent, with an average GPA of 3.5. One in four graduates earned a GPA of 4.0 or higher.

The district reports that 91 percent of graduates plan to pursue post-secondary education, while 9 percent plan to enter the workforce or military. Students in the Class of 2026 also earned 380 industry certifications.

“This graduating class has demonstrated excellence both inside and outside the classroom,” Superintendent Dr. Matt Kegley said. “Whether their next step is college, military service, the workforce, or another pathway, these students leave HSE prepared to make meaningful contributions to their communities. We are proud of all they have accomplished and excited to see what comes next.”

HSE officials said the Class of 2026 has built a legacy of academic success, leadership, service, athletic achievement, artistic excellence and community involvement throughout their time in the district.

Both graduation ceremonies will be livestreamed and recorded for those unable to attend in person.
