The morning of Friday, June 10 welcomed beautiful sunny weather and a most auspicious event: our 5th Graders officially “moved up” and became rising 6th Graders! Parents, families, faculty/staff, Lower School (LS) students, and friends came to celebrate our eldest in the LS division. This year’s 5th Grade Moving Up Ceremony prominently featured our 5th graders’ insights, including their sage advice to our younger students and sincere words of gratitude to the different adults who have made their time in the Lower School special, and a moving rendition of “Lean On Me”. They finally each received a small box to release a monarch butterfly, representing their moving up to new adventures! Congratulations to the Class of 2031!
