8th grade promotion

Parents and Guardians of Waitsburg 8th Grade Students:

We’re nearing the end of the 2022-2023 school year, and we’re excited to celebrate our annual 8th Grade Promotion Ceremony with your student on Monday, June 12 in the Waitsburg High School Auditorium at 7:00 p.m. Your 8th grader will participate in 9th grade orientation on June 6th from 1:45 to 2:45 p.m., hosted by our Waitsburg High School Associated Student Body Officers.

On Monday, June 12th, all 8th grade students should plan to be at school from 8:30 to 10:30 A.M.  They will have their 1st period class as usual with Mr. Hansen.  At 9:30, they will report to the WHS auditorium to practice for the promotion ceremony.  At 10:30, all 8th grade students will be dismissed.  Please make a plan with your student for their dismissal from campus at 10:30.  They will not have afternoon classes and supervision will not be available for them. 

On Monday, June 12 from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m., Preston Hall students will be participating in a field day at the football field.  Eighth grade students are invited to attend and may choose to return to campus on June 12 at 1:00 p.m. to participate in the field day.

Please have your 8th grade student at Waitsburg High School at approximately 6:45 p.m. to prepare for the promotion ceremony, which begins at 7:00 p.m. 

There will be no school for 8th grade students on Tuesday, June 13th.

Thank you for all you have done to support your 8th grader this year. Next year will be an exciting transition for your student entering high school. Please do not hesitate to contact Stephanie Wooderchak with any questions.
