Retirement Party
Mrs. W is retiring at the end of this year. She has been at Stargate for ten years! She is a wonderful asset to our school community and will be missed very much.
There will be a party in her honor on Wednesday, May 21. We would like to give her a bouquet of flowers representing each child. If you would like to contribute to the bouquets please contact Mrs. Burchill. Thank you very much.

Continuation Plans Begin!
March 17, 2007
Dear Parents,
Eighth Grade Continuation is fast approaching. Included in this packet are a request for information from you and some information that might be helpful as you and your family plan spring events.
Important Stuff:
- Continuation is June 4th in the Stargate Gymnasium at 6:00pm (Invitations will be sent to your home in early May)
- Students are expected to dress up – dresses or skirts for girls, ties and button down shirts for boys. No Jeans.
- Following the ceremony there will be a dance for graduates only (no parents, no siblings, no 7th graders – just graduates and teachers). The dance will last until 10pm.
- Although the school has budgeted to cover some of the cost of this event, there is often a nominal fee to cover additional expenses (usually $10 or less per family). We will let you know if a fee is necessary
- We are still looking for volunteers to help with the planning, invitations, decorations and dessert. If you are interested, please contact Ms. Krill by April 2
- We will be posting news on the website and sending home notices throughout the spring. Please check the website regularly or watch your mailbox.
It’s an exciting time for all of us and we look forward to celebrating your child’s success with you.
Best regards,
The 7-8 Team
