Since so many of us want to celebrate our grad in different ways, we put together an opportunity to celebrate our 8th graders and make a little money towards our 8th-grade legacy gift. Please see the link for all the options for your own décor at your home! Thank you to Vivi’s aunt for putting these together for us. All orders have to be in NO LATER THAN MAY 26th, so that everyone may receive them in time for graduation. Also, for the grad card rental, if you’d prefer the rental to be over the weekend after graduation either Friday or Saturday for the 1-day rental, please just let us know. All grad card rentals are set up the night before our graduation day if no prior arrangement is made.
