Dear 8th Grade Wildcat Families,

Can you believe that your child is only one semester away from starting high school? In preparation for this transition, we have built an 8th grade specific newsletter that we will send out periodically with important 8th grade updates and information from each of the high schools.


Please scroll to your feeder school and we highly encourage you to attend their information sessions!

8TH GRADE END-OF-YEAR DINNER DANCE

8th grade parents: save the date! PTO will be holding a general planning meeting for the big 8th Grade Dinner Dance on January 28 from 3-4 PM in the MPR, so please mark your calendars! This is a very special, more formal catered event hosted at an outside venue that has become a BGW tradition but takes a lot of helping hands. Let's celebrate our graduating students and give them a night to remember with their peers before they head off to high school!
