Dear 8th Graders & Families,
The 8th Grade Moving Up Ceremony on Wednesday, June 25, will take place in the RCS High School Auditorium, starting promptly at 6:30 p.m. Please read the following event details carefully.
Doors Open at 6:00 p.m.
Please have your student there no later than 6:15 p.m. They should report directly to the auditorium.
There will be no reserved seats for this event. Please let someone know if you need accessible seating.
There will be additional overflow seating in the High School chorus room where the program will be streamed onto a big screen for guests.
Please do not bring balloons or balloon bouquets to the Moving Up Ceremony for your student. Balloons limit visibility to those around you, and if balloons get loose, they may set off the fire alarm. Flowers are fine.
Standing on the sides or the back of the auditorium during the ceremony will not be allowed. The aisles must remain clear at all times in case of an emergency. There will be additional overflow seating in the High School chorus room, across the hall from the auditorium, where the program will be streamed onto a big screen for guests.
Refreshments will be served in the high school cafeteria following the ceremony.
Here is a parking map for the High School.
The event will be live-streamed via our YouTube page*.
*Please note that the stream will not begin until 6:25 p.m.
