The end of the school year has come and our KHA 8th graders graduate...
The Class of 2014 was a tiny class of 10 (minus one in the picture)! Smallest ever for the school!
The KHA Bands combined to perform at the graduation as their last performance of the school year. But my daughter was not there... Where did Emily go?
She just missed playing the first two songs: Star Spangled Banner and Pomp and Circumstance
She was a part of the Honor Guard!
Emily's fellow classmates, Mihir, Bryan, and Sarah-Grace
The top four (academically) of the 7th grade class are chosen to be the Honor Guard for the year performing at two ceremonies, the 8th grade graduation and Veteran's Day Service (this coming November 11, 2014).

I also was in charge of the 8th Grade Graduation Reception! Yep, my "job" is never done! The 7th Grade Class hosts the 8th Grade Class' graduation reception, a KHA tradition and a gift to the graduating class.
I had some extraordinary parents to help me along with some extremely helpful 7th grade students to put this event together.
The decor was beautiful! I could have never done what Ivy did!
Two parent moms baked a total 100 cupcakes and 60 brownies from scratch! They were delicious! You could tell these were NOT from a box mix!
I hired a friend to create and handmake each invitation...
... and gifted the graduates with a 16x20 collage poster as their departing "favor".
For fun, we replaced the usual 'wedding arch' for portrait taking with a fun photo booth.
The photo booth was just an app on the iPad.
The kids had great fun with it!
Silly Honor Guards!
Here we are hamming it up! It was a great afternoon!
I even got personalized stickers for the kisses as favors for the guests!
