Help us Celebrate our 5th Grade Graduation!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Medina's classroom raised $325

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our school only has 1 Fifth Grade ICT class and 1 4/5 Bridge Class. Our students have all been together since Kindergarten. Elementary school has been their home for a long time. It's going to be so hard to say goodbye, but we want to have a wonderful Graduation Celebration to send them off to Middle School.

We would like to have a Graduation Celebration where our students will be able to celebrate all of their accomplishments.

The decorations and snacks will be used to create an environment where students will feel appreciated and celebrated. We also want to provide our students with small gifts, so that they will have something to remember 5th grade.
