The ceremony will begin promptly at 9:00 AM. Please make sure participating students arrive at school no later than 7:45 AM so they have time to check in and prepare.
All tickets are electronic. Families do not need to bring a physical ticket. Upon arrival, provide staff with the 8th grade student’s name at check-in for entry. Each participating student has 4 electronic tickets on file for their guests.
We look forward to celebrating the accomplishments of our amazing 8th graders!

Dear Families,

📅 Ceremony Date: Thursday, June 11, 2026
🕚 Ceremony Time: 11:00 AM

If you have any questions, please contact the main office.

As we begin wrapping up another amazing school year, we ask that **all middle school students return their laptops and chargers by Friday, June 12th **. ****
Collecting student devices at the end of the year helps our school complete an accurate summer inventory and allows our technology team to check each laptop, make needed updates, and identify any devices that may need repairs before students return. Students should return their devices and chargers to Ms. Porter in the main office.
Your support with returning devices on time helps us make sure our students have access to working technology and are ready for a successful start to the next school year.
We appreciate your partnership and all that you do to support our Wildwood students. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to Mrs. Riley, Dean of Students.
Thank you again for your help, and we hope you enjoy the rest of your day!
With Wildcat Pride,
Dean Riley
Wildwood Elementary/Middle School
