8th Graders. I'm rooting for you and have high hopes for all you can accomplish. I wanted to cry when I heard your band concert. You were so beautiful all dressed up and excited with your heads held high. I am confident you will rise to the challenges ahead of you and so excited for the adventures that await you. Work hard! You deserve your best effort. I still think of you and wonder how you are doing. You will be in my prayers.
Love, Mrs. Herold

Kionny, Big Isabella and Jah'Zhane', I appreciate you spending your 8th grade year with me. I REALLY appreciate Kionny and Bella for spending all 3 years with me on the cheer squad. I wish we could have competed because I know we would have won back to back championships!! Don't forget your cheer skills, and especially not the skills of being kind and supportive of others. YOU ARE CHEERLEADERS, we cheer even if we are losing!! I love you!  COACH DILL

Wow, it has been an incredible journey to see you grow from itty bitty bright-eyed 6th graders to fully determined mature (you know who you are) pre-high schoolers! Although this year has been different and we weren’t able to fully celebrate at the end of the year, it has been an experience for the ‘history books.’ Thank you to all of the students who bravely participated and put in the effort to compete in our academic competition this year-please continue to challenge your academic capabilities moving forward. You are smart and beautiful souls, masterfully created!

Farewell Manor Rams 🐑 ❤️🙏

Wassup 8th grade!! You did it! You made it through another chapter of education. You are officially high schoolers. Continue to grow and learn. Know that learning is not limited academic standards but you will be learning new things for life. Learn to be great leaders. Learn to love through adversity. Learn how you can impact your community and your world. Everyone of you can succeed. It is a matter of how much you want to be successful. Success looks different for each of us. Work hard, always strive to do what’s right even when no one is watching ,be diligent, stay focused, and do you because there is only one you. God created each one of you, unique in design. You truly are our future and by persisting to still stay educated during these rough times shows you are ready to take on new challenges and overcome them. Congrats on your promotions to high school!

Best regards,
Mr. Crockett

New chapters in life can be scary scary,  also be fun and exciting.  As you make your way in this new world you are about to embark on, remember that kindness and respect for others is more important than anything. More important than grades, sports, or popularity.  When you are kind and make good choices, life will repay you ten fold. Maybe not right way, and maybe not even that year, but it will come. All you can be is your best, do not compare your best to someone else's. We are all unique and have our own talents.  Just be you and always be kind. Help those that are in need, you will need help someday too.
Good luck in your future endvors.

As you move into high school, don't forget the bonds that were formed in our class. Your group was different from any other group of students that I have ever worked with. We laughed together, we cried together, we argued like family. I know that you all will continue to do great things. And remember, what happens in 116 stays in 116 😉
