5th Grade Graduation

Help me give my students supplies for a fun and memorable fifth-grade graduation ceremony!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Martinez's classroom raised $326

My Project

Can you believe the end of the year is already approaching? The majority of my class is wrapping up their elementary school career and preparing to move on to middle school.

To celebrate this exciting time, I would like to throw a 5th-grade graduation ceremony for my class.

During the ceremony, students and their families will watch a slideshow of photos from their time at Curry and receive a graduation certificate and gift. Students and families will have the opportunity to enjoy refreshments and take photos at our photobooth after the ceremony. By donating to my project, you are helping me provide each student with a graduation cap and sash, a graduation gift, and some fun photobooth items for them to use with their friends and families.

I hope to be able to give my students a graduation party that is as awesome as they are! Thank you for your support!
