*It’s time for the 6^th Grade students to start creating their end of the year slide show for our Graduation! Please send 2 photos of your 6^th grader to school ASAP! One photo needs to be a baby picture and the other needs to be a current picture of your student! We will also accept any other photos that have been taken throughout the students’ time at school. I am looking for a lot of group photos showing the kids doing various school and extracurricular activities to add to the slide show! The more pictures the better the slide show is!
