8th-grade Parents and Guardians,
Thank you for your patience in waiting for the promotion information. We have very little time to prepare for this virtual event. I would like to thank Mr. Brown and his staff for organizing this event with the outside vendor, and all the parents who donated to this course.
I hope this will be a memorable moment for all our 8th graders. Please dress up and decorate your room =)

Message from Mr Brown below:
This virtual promotion in no way, shape, or form takes the place of the in-person formal celebration with family, friends, staff, and most importantly with each other for our kids. Given the very short turn around I would like to commend the PFA and students for shifting to put something together.
What you do at home for our 8th graders is going to be much more important than the link and brief speeches. I'm sure some of you have some amazing things planned. Connect with each other if you are looking for ideas or help.
--Decorate
--Collect "Words of Wisdom" or advice from family and friends (write them out on cards or notes)
--Take a lot of pictures (make them dress up) {if they won't dress up then you should}
--Put a sign in the yard
--Get out old photos or videos (of you and them)
--Ask a neighbor to take a family picture (from a safe distance of course)
--Please carve out some time to be together as a family with no work-related devices
--Ask your kids what they want
--Celebrate other kids (even those that you don't know so well)
As much as this celebration is about the students...on behalf of the Hopkins Staff...congratulations to you all as well.
