Rio Tierra Junior High School Families,
 
The 2022/2023 school year is quickly coming to a close, and we are busy preparing to celebrate our promoting 8th graders. Here is some information you will need for our promotion ceremony:

  • The ceremony will take place behind the gym on the blacktop of Rio Tierra on Wednesday, June 7th and will begin at 9:00am.
  • There is no guest limit and you do not need a ticket.
  • Seating will be provided (guest seating is in the sun and no shade structures or umbrellas will be permitted in the seating area, please be sure to dress for the weather).
  • After the ceremony, students will return to campus to finish their school day. If you prefer to take your child with you after the ceremony, you will need to do an Early Dismissal.    There will be a table at the ceremony where you can sign your child out for the day.
  • Students should dress appropriately for the event. The school dress code must be followed. (See below for dress code reminders)
 
Please be sure to continuing reading the information below to review promotion and end of year activity participation requirements.  Thank you, families, for all the support you have given your children to get them to this milestone. We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday, June 7th.
