Celebrate! 8th Grade Promotion

Help me give my students gold dinnerware for an amazing, royal eagle eighth grade promotion ceremony.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Berenice's classroom raised $351

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

All of these items will help make my students eighth grade promotion memorable. I want to give my students a graduation dinner for our promotion ceremony.

During your school years, you have special moments that are always remembered, and my students will have a beautiful promotion dinner with gold dinnerware that they have worked so hard for.

I want my 8th graders to always remember their middle school years and have fond memories of their friends, teachers, and staff. I want all of their learning and hard work to be recognized with a memorable yet fancy dinner and be treated like royalty they deserve.
