8th Grade Clap Out

We will continue our clap out tradition on the last day of school for our 8^th graders. Please have all your students lined up outside your classroom by 10:45 on Friday. All 8^th graders and their parents will walk through the hallways of Keystone one last time as the entire school claps/cheers for them. 

Students can shout, say kind words, clap hands or use noisemakers to make our 8^th graders feel special. I will be providing each grade level with a specific number of clappers and/or noise makers for your students to use. Please make sure to collect them at the conclusion of the clap out and return them to me. Upon completion of the clap out, all Y5s-7 students will immediately go back to their classroom and teachers will pull up Driveline.

Please make sure to end your classroom celebration in enough time to prepare for the end of the day and be in the hallway by 10:45.

Lunch in Classrooms

 

Lunch will be in classrooms on Monday and Thursday. Lunch is in classrooms on Monday for the school store and Thursday for setting up 8^th grade graduation. The admin team will come around to give you an opportunity to warm up your food and use the restroom.
