8th Grade Bridging Over
Hello Corbett Family
Good morning 8th grade Parents/Caregivers,
We have finalized our Bridging Over Ceremony and have decided the location and time will be here at Corbett JH on the football field from 8:30AM-10:30AM. There are a few things we want to remind you of before our amazing event.
- Please have your student bring a water bottle that day
- Dress in cool clothing (we recommend the Bridging Over T-shirt and shorts/jeans).
- Remind your student no backpacks on the day of the ceremony.
If your plan on checking your student out, please be aware that you must check them out via our raptor system. You may only check out your own student. Please be patient with the lines as many parents/caregivers will be checking students out.
The 8th grade Bridging Over shirt is available for preorder until April 5,2024. The sale is open to all students and staff.
We are encouraging ALL 8th graders to purchase a shirt, as this is the shirt they will wear for our Bridging Over Ceremony in May. Shirts are recommended to wear, but not required for our Bridging Over Ceremony.

Shirts will arrive either at the end of April or early May.
