8th Grade Farewell

May 21st, 2026*

As our students move on from Blue Valley Middle, the school and PTO would like to honor them, celebrate them, reminisce over the past 3 years, and make this a special memory for them!  

As plans are solidified, we will continue to update this page with the latest information. (Last updated 12/4/25)

Event Details

Your student's final full day of middle school will begin with a Formal Ceremony in the gym. Families are invited to attend, as the school acknowledges their accomplishments and wishes them well on their high school journey. Students are asked to dress up for the ceremony.

After the ceremony, families and students are invited to move into the school courtyard for a brief reception. This is your opportunity to take photos and congratulate your student and their friends. 

After families depart, students will change into their provided class t-shirts. Please send casual clothing with your student to wear. They will then board buses to a fun activity.

Students will return to BVMS by bus, and will be dismissed for the day at the usual dismissal time of 3pm. All students must ride the bus to AND from BVMS. 

Please note that students cannot be checked out from the activity site. If you plan to check your student out early, work with the school ahead of time to do so once they return to the building.

*Date is subject to change based on last day of school, determined by the BVSD BOE after Spring Break. Celebration generally occurs on the last full day of school before summer break.
