8th Grade Corner

October 2025

It's hard to believe it but the 8th grade Promotion festivities will be here before we know it! 

 

DONATIONS:

In order to make this very special event successful, we rely on donations from each family to define our budget for the night.  We are asking that each family donate $55 per student. The deadline to contribute is December 15th and we are still missing a large amount of donations. If you haven't donated yet, please do so by the December 15th deadline: CLICK HERE TO DONATE!

 

YEARBOOK RECOGNITION ADS:

You have an opportunity to build a lasting memory for your 8th grader’s final MBMS yearbook. Please consider purchasing and creating a recognition ad for your child. There are simple, straightforward templates for you to use as well as an option to upload a design of your own using Photoshop, Canva, or any other design software you prefer. Simply choose the option that allows you to upload your own image and go from there!

To order a yearbook for your student and/or to purchase an ad in the book, use this link: Yearbook OrdersIf you have any questions, please email the yearbook adviser, Mr. Levy. 

 

PHOTO WALL:

The Photo Wall of Memories is a collection of photographs for our 8th graders. It will be on display for parents prior to the promotion ceremony and for our students during the promotion celebration. Please begin thinking of which pictures you would like to submit.  You can submit up to five hard copy 8x10 photos (DO NOT submit originals; photos WILL NOT be returned). You can start dropping off photos to the MBMS Office in March, with a deadline of May. More information will come out closer to March.
