8th Grade Bridge Crossing and Award Ceremony

On the last day of school, parents of 8th-grade students are welcome to line up from the front of the middle school and over the bridge, to the front of the high school. This long-standing tradition honors our students as they take their symbolic walk to their next destination, leaving the middle school behind. 

Immediately following, the 8th-grade award ceremony will take place in the high school auditorium.  This event is by invitation only.

Please stay tuned for additional information about both activities.
