To all 8th grade parents,
Garfield School District Policy is that all 8th-grade students must meet all of their academic requirements to participate in the June graduation ceremony. Therefore, if your son or daughter needs to attend credit recovery at the end of June or summer school due to academic failure, unfortunately, they will not be able to participate in the June graduation ceremony. Upon completing their credit recovery and/or summer school, your child will be promoted to 9th grade. If there are any questions or concerns about your child’s grades, please don’t hesitate to call or email Mr. Cipollone (ccippolone@gboe.org), 8th-grade guidance counselor, for more information.
