With pomp and circumstance, Alamo Heights High School celebrated the graduation of the Class of 2025 on May 22 at Harry B. Orem Stadium. This year’s class of more than 350 graduates was honored for their outstanding academic and extracurricular achievements.
The Class of 2025 earned close to $7 million in college scholarships. Our newest graduates will next attend prestigious universities across the state and nation.
“The class of 2025 didn’t just show up, they soared in academics, athletics, the arts, and beyond,” said Alamo Heights High School Principal Cory Smith. “They set a standard of excellence.”

During the ceremony, Principal Smith announced the Outstanding Senior Girl and Boy, as voted on by the faculty and staff. Lily Russell was honored as Outstanding Senior Girl and Wesley Nye was named Outstanding Senior Boy. Both were lauded as exemplifying character, integrity, and the characteristics of the district’s Profile of a Learner.
Emphasizing connection and community, Principal Smith recognized all Alamo Heights ISD teachers who played a role in the graduates’ education from Howard Early Childhood Center through high school.
Leading up to the graduation ceremony, seniors were able to take part in many traditions. They attended Senior Sendoffs at Cambridge and Woodridge elementary schools, reuniting with former teachers and walking down memory lane with pictures and yearbooks. The graduates also donned their caps and gowns for Senior Walks and paraded through both elementary schools among cheering teachers and students.
Seniors whose parents work in Alamo Heights ISD were honored at a reception highlighting the connections of AHISD families. Employees were also invited to award diplomas to their children on stage at the graduation ceremony.
