Grade 6
In grade 6 all students are invited to Awards Night/Open House

* All prerequisities and criteria pertain to current school year only
Please note that there are some ‘surprise’ awards; e.g., special recognition by a teacher, counselor or administrator for leadership, scholarship, citizenship, improvement or service. Therefore, there may be certain students who receive invitations for categories different from those in the following list; these are not errors—it’s that these students are receiving awards that aren’t preannounced.

The program, which will be held in the gymnasium, will include a preview of the end-of-year activities video.

Nicer school clothes are recommended. Because of limited auditorium space, invitees should please try to limit guests to two per student.

Award recipients and their guests are asked remain for the entire formal portion of the awards presentation.
