My Project

As our 8th graders prepare to celebrate the culmination of their middle school years, we are excited to organize a memorable graduation prom and ceremony. One of the key elements of a successful event is to create a festive and celebratory atmosphere through decorations.

We are reaching out to kindly request a 4 ft lighted GRAD marquee along with other decorations to help make this event special for all our students.

Our goal is to create a vibrant, welcoming space that reflects the hard work and accomplishments of our 8th graders. Also included are favor boxes along with treats to be distributed to our graduates with their diplomas. Let's give them a great send off as they transition from middle school to high school.
