If you're looking for a new idea to celebrate promotion from one grade to another, you've found it. This idea will create school spirit, and make students proud.These "Small School Mascots" make your celebration something to remember!
Moving up to the next grade is a milestone in the life of the student. It means they belong to the group that "passed the test" and achieved success.
It sets a pattern for life. It gives them the idea that life is moving up from one stage to another. It gives them a sense of achievement and makes them want to do more.
So, make your celebration BIG!
Take out all the stops. Let your student know you noticed, and that you are proud. If you are a teacher, you know you have done your job. You taught well and the student learned. If you are a parent, you see your child growing up to be the person you want them to be.
"Small School Mascots" will make your celebration great. They will bond the student to the school and set the stage for next year. The school is becoming part of your student's life, and you want it to be a good part, one they love. You want it to be part of their life so they feel it is worth all the time it takes.
Students want to belong. They want to be part of the crowd. They want to do well, they want to achieve, they want to grow, and they want to be somebody! Give them the responsibility to make the right choice, but when they make it, let them know they did it right.
A graduation program; the celebration of moving up from one grade to another, is your approval of their achievements. It says, "you made the right choice, you worked it through, you did it!”
They earned something special, so give them a "Small School Mascot." Give them the image of the character that represents the school, and once they bond with the character, they will bond forever with the school. When school begins next year, they will not only be ready, they will be enthusiastic about it
