Eighth Grade End of the Year Activities

Today, I will be meeting with all of the eighth grade students and sharing with them the information regarding the end of the year activities. Your child should bring home a packet explaining the same information as well as the fees that are required for these events.

On Monday, June 1, 2009 students will be heading to Navy Pier for a day trip aboard the Odyssey Boat and a little site seeing on Navy Pier. Prior to our departure parents are welcome to come to school to take pictures and see all of the students together. As I will be sharing with students, dress for this event should be dressy, but comfortable as there will be walking involved. (So, new dress shoes and formal gowns might not be such a wise choice for the day!)

Graduation is set for Wednesday, June 3rd at 7:30 p.m. in the Lakeview Gym. Due to a large number of graduates and limited seating each student will receive four tickets to graduation. Should your family not require all of those tickets please return extra tickets to the office so we can share them with families who would like more than the four allotted tickets.

If you have any questions once you have received the packet of information please feel free to give me a call.
