๐โจ 8th Grade Graduation Reception Volunteers โจ๐
Our 8th Grade Graduation Reception is a special tradition that celebrates our graduates and their families following the ceremony — and we need your help to make it happen!
๐ Traditionally, 8th grade parents are not asked to volunteer so they can fully enjoy this milestone event with their graduate and family. We rely on amazing families from other grades to help support this memorable celebration.
