Congratulations to Camarion LaBarre as the recipient of the First Boom-A-Lang Award for “Bringing Joy and Making a Change.”

Mrs. Lang is a retired Teacher from Milwood Magnet, who still is a part of our school and loves to make a difference.
The Boom-A-Lang idea is to empower those that you can, support those in schools, and celebrate kindness.

Kindness, like a boomerang, always returns.

Thank you to Camarion’s family for supplying these pictures from the 8th Grade Celebration supporting our Milwood Magnet Students. 😊

CELEBRATION CEREMONY INFORMATION
8th Grade Celebration will be held on Friday, June 5th, at the Chenery Auditorium. Students are required to arrive by 5:30 PM to ensure they are properly lined up and prepared for the processional; prompt arrival is critical to the flow of the event. For family members and guests, the ceremony will begin strictly at 6:00 PM, at which point the doors will close.

SECURITY AND ENTRY GUIDELINES
To ensure a safe and smooth experience for all attendees, please allow extra time to navigate the entry process, as lines tend to become quite long. Campus safety will be stationed at the entrance to conduct security screenings via metal detectors. Please be advised that balloons, signs, and bags are strictly prohibited inside the auditorium. Any guests carrying these items will be asked by security to return them to their vehicles before they are granted entry. We provide these details in advance so you can arrive prepared and enjoy this milestone celebration without delay.
