End-of-Year Celebrations for Eighth Grade Students

For Our Eighth-Graders

As a District, we are creating new traditions for our middle schools. Beginning this year we will move away from the Promotion Ceremonies that were held at our high schools and moving toward more personalized celebrations.

Each school will hold eighth-grade celebrations as well as other activities to congratulate students for their accomplishments during their middle school years. These celebrations will be held virtually for the 2020-21 school year and at individual school sites in subsequent years.

We are excited about the personal touch these celebrations will bring by having students at their own school site with the community that has encouraged and supported them throughout their middle school experience.

Eighth grade celebrations will be held Wednesday, June 2.
