8th Grade Promotion and End of the Year Events

The 8th-grade promotion ceremony and activities are essential events at Walsh. As such, the promotion ceremony and end-of-year activities are designed to honor all students and celebrate the year. Students must meet minimum requirements to fully participate in all the activities available to our 8th graders. Based on existing Walsh expectations and the FPS Code Of Character, these expectations outline the minimum academic, attendance, and behavior requirements needed to participate in these activities. Eighth graders who cannot meet these minimum requirements risk losing the privilege of participating in one or more of the following activities:

8th Grade Promotion

Our 8th Grade Promotion Ceremony is scheduled for the evening of Monday, June 17th from 5:30 - 6:30PM. This is an outdoor event at Walsh so that more family members are able to attend.

More information will follow in the coming weeks.

Six Flags New England

The Six Flags field trip will be on Thursday, June 13th. Student will leave from school around 8:45 AM and return to Walsh around 3:30 PM. Students will need to be picked up at Walsh. The cost is $38. Permission slips will be coming home this week.

8th Grade Cook Out

The 8th Grade Cook out will be Tuesday, June 11th from 5:30 - 7:00 PM

8th Grade Yearbooks

All 8th grade students will receive a NO COST yearbook. 8th grade parents do NOT need to order one unless you want to customize it. They will be given to the 8th grade students during the last few days of school. We are able to do this because of past 3 on 3 fundraising.

Mandatory Student ID Cards

We hope this message finds you well. As we continue to prioritize the safety and security of our students and staff, we would like to remind you of an important requirement for all students.

Mandatory Student ID Cards

To ensure a safe and secure environment within our school, it is mandatory for all students and staff to wear their Student ID cards at all times while on the school premises. This is an essential part of our safety measures, allowing us to easily identify students and personnel.

We kindly request your cooperation in ensuring that your child has their Student ID card with them when coming to school. This small but vital card should be carried with them at all times. If your child has lost their ID card, please contact the school's Office Manager, Tracey Suprena to request a replacement.

By adhering to this requirement, we can maintain a safe and efficient school environment, which ultimately benefits all students. Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your understanding and support in our efforts to prioritize the safety and well-being of our school community. If you have any questions or require further assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

Cell Phone, Earbuds, and Chromebook Use

Please remind your student that their cellphone and earbuds need to be put in their backpacks during the day. They should not be used in the halls, cafeteria, or at recess. Also, please remind them to charge and remember to bring in their Chromebooks to school. Thank you for your help.

Teaching Kids to Be Smart About Social Media

Before kids or teens hit "enter," make sure they know the rules when it comes to oversharing, teasing, posting personal info, and other online don'ts.
