Our 5th grade promotion ceremony will be held on Thursday, June 14th from 9:45 to 11:00.  The ceremony will be held at Deep Run Elementary in the cafeteria.  Since this is a promotion and not a graduation, we are asking that families consider this a special day but not think of it like a high school graduation.

• Students should wear dressy clothes for the ceremony.
• Each 5th grader is allowed 3 guests.  This will allow us to keep within the fire code capacity for the cafeteria.
• Siblings of 5th graders in other grades in the school will not be called down to attend the promotion.  We will be broadcasting the promotion live to the classrooms in the building.
• Strollers will not be allowed in the cafeteria—we need all possible space for chairs and people to stand.  There will be a “parking lot” for strollers at the entrance of the school.
• Students and their guests are invited to refreshments after the ceremony in front of the school.
• Parents may sign their child out with the homeroom teacher at the end of the ceremony.  Parents may only sign out their own child.
• Parking is going to be difficult—the bus loop can be used for parking after 9:20.  Please consider parking in the Waterloo Park.  Please consider walking or car-pooling.
