The HCPSS Black Student Achievement Program (BSAP) is selling Kente cloth graduation stoles to families for graduating students. Kente is a traditional African textile that the Ashanti people in Ghana and West Africa first weaved. Today, it is worn to pay homage to African ancestors and to show pride in the heritage of the Diaspora during ceremonial occasions.
Timeframe to order: December 1, 2025 – May 1, 2026
The stoles can be purchased online through the HCPSS Online School Payments. Please direct any questions to Nicole Brown at Nicole_Brown@hcpss.org.
