Woodland and W.T. Clarke middle schools held moving up ceremonies to celebrate their graduating eighth grade students on June 21. Woodland Middle School held two ceremonies for the eighth grade class in the school’s auditorium. Principal James Lethbridge spoke at each, offering advice and well wishes to the soon-to-be high school students. Later that evening, W.T. Clarke Principal Stacy Breslin welcomed students, families, teachers, building administrators and central administration to the W.T. Clarke Middle School moving up ceremony at the school’s football field. Both ceremonies included musical numbers and awards for exceptional students.
At both schools, central administration was present, and Superintendent of Schools Dr. Kenneth A. Card Jr. spoke to the students about their next steps. He offered calm words as he reassured them that they have been well prepared by the staff and faculty at Woodland and W.T. Clarke middle schools.
The district looks forward to the journeys of these students and wishes them luck and success in their high school careers.
