HISD schools to dismiss early on Dec 1 for Regional Final
HUNTSVILLE, TX (November 27, 2023) – Huntsville ISD will have an Early Release Day this
Friday, December 1, 2023, with all campuses dismissing early at 2:30 PM. This new early
release time will hopefully allow our Hornet Nation football fans and families to attend the Hornet playoff game scheduled for that evening in Houston. HISD Transportation will also run
afternoon bus routes earlier than normal times. Parents should make any arrangements
necessary to accommodate this early dismissal time, including arranging for after-school care.
The Huntsville Hornet Varsity Football team won the Regional 3 Semifinal playoff game on
Friday, November 24, 2023, against Richmond Randle to advance to the fourth round of the
playoffs! The Regional Final game between the Huntsville Hornets and
the Port Neches-Groves Indians will be played this Friday, December 1, 2023, at 7:00 PM at NRG Stadium in Houston, TX. Huntsville ISD encourages all citizens to join us to pack the
stands at NRG to cheer on our hometown Hornets!

Fan Bus Transporation Information (Updated 11/29/2023)
HUNTSVILLE HORNET BUS TRANSPORTATION FOR FANS….
In an effort to support the community and ensure fans can attend Friday’s game at NRG, Kendra Shelly and Lawana Hayes-Hadnot have organized transportation with Sam’s Limousine Company. At a cost of $30 per person, they are reaching out to local businesses and individuals for sponsorships to cover bus fares for those who might not be able to afford it. This initiative is a unique opportunity for the community to come together and support each other, particularly for an event that brings so much excitement and spirit. The bus needs to be paid for by tomorrow to secure its availability for Friday. Kendra Shelly and Lawana Hayes-Hadnot invite anyone interested in contributing to this cause to contact them directly. This sponsorship does not cover game tickets, and all contributions need to be made by THURSDAY, November 30 at noon.
For further details or to offer support, Kendra Shelly can be reached at 936-714-9046, and Lawana Hayes-Hadnot at 936-994-0876.
