My Project

Our 8th grade students have worked extremely hard this year. We want to give them the celebration they deserve for finishing out their middle school years. Many of our students have been here since Kindergarten so this transition is a very big deal!

Help us make our 8th graders dreams come true!

We need support in gathering materials for their promotion ceremony. With all of the hard work they've put in this year, we know they deserve the best! With your help, our students will get the pomp and circumstance needed for a wonderful promotion ceremony.

We are so grateful for your contributions to our 8th grade class. They will love the decorations and sophistication this project will provide. Help us send them to high school knowing their hard work was worth it!

Mrs. Rached Marie G Davis School Grades 6-8
