8TH GRADE IMPORTANT INFORMATION!
Request for Photos for ASA 8th Grade Promotion Ceremony Slideshow
Dear 8th Grade Parents/Guardians,
As the end of the school year approaches, we are excited to celebrate the achievements of our 8th-grade students and honor their hard work and dedication. One of the highlights of our promotion ceremony is a slideshow featuring photos of our 8th-grade students from their early childhood through their time at ASA.
We would like to request your assistance in collecting four to six (4-6) photos of your child, including one from early childhood (baby pictures), to be included in the slideshow. The deadline to submit photos is Wednesday, May 15, 2024, to allow us enough time to create the slideshow to present during the promotion ceremony on May 22nd.
To make it easy for you to share the photos, please email the photos directly to media@asathrive.org. Please include your child's name and 8th grade teacher in the subject line of the email.
We would appreciate it if you could also provide a brief message to your child to be included in the slideshow. This could be a message of congratulations or encouragement for their future.
Thank you for your help as we celebrate our ASA 8th grade promoting class of 2024! We look forward to seeing your child's photos and honoring their journey.
Best regards,
