And they’re off … to middle school!
New Scotland Elementary School bade its fifth-graders farewell at a Moving-Up Ceremony on Friday morning in the school courtyard.
Check out a Facebook photo album from the day. (You don't need a Facebook account to see the photos linked in the highlighted text. A window may appear that says, "To see more from Albany City Schools on Facebook, log on or create an account,” but you can dismiss it by clicking “not now.”)
Family, friends and staff were on hand for the festivities, which included student speakers, songs and awards. Once each student received a certificate, the group of newly minted-middle schoolers paraded around the perimeter of the school to the applause of younger students.
Congrats to the 69 scholars who moved up!
