My Project

Each year, our fifth grade scholars culminate and celebrate their growth from their elementary to middle school years. We want to help students express themselves through the creation of their own culmination caps. With white culmination caps, students will use paint, markers, paper, and stickers to create a one-of-a-kind celebration cap for their special day.

They will reflect on a theme about their elementary years, something that is unique to them as a scholars.

This theme could include a beloved character from their childhood or a quote from a famous scholar who inspired them or simply a vision of their future. Students will then artistically design a rough draft and final creation cap, which will be worn during the ceremony and hopefully saved and displayed for years to come.
