It’s that time of year again! As we head into summer vacation, we hope that everyone had a wonderful and productive school year.

We want to send one last update from the PTO to share how the 8th-grade celebration went. It was a fantastic event, and we are so glad we could celebrate our 8th graders together.

The 8th Grade Celebration was a huge success! We came in under budget, had incredible parent participation, and the weather held out perfectly for the event. With at least 100 students attending, the field was full of energy, laughter, and fun. The kids were so engaged with the activities, music, games, and each other that phones were rarely seen except for snapping photos to capture the memories.

You can view photos from the event at the following link: https://photos.app.goo.gl/xB8oEAbcDXeth7SM7

We will truly miss our outgoing 8th graders and wish them all the best as they begin their next chapter in high school.

We hope you have a safe and relaxing summer break!
