Recognition Night
May 25, 2017, 8:00 pm
Pekin Community High School Gymnasium
Dear Eighth Grade Parents,
We need your cooperation and assistance to make our eighth grade recognition night in May a success. Our
goal is to continue to maintain the tradition of making our ceremony a dignified event. Recognition night is a
ceremony and not a celebration. It is a transformation for students moving from junior high to high school.
You, as parents, are good examples of responsible and dignified behavior. We ask for your help and that you
refrain from any inappropriate behavior during any part of the ceremony. If any child has a history of
problems that would lead us to believe that his / her actions would make a distraction at the ceremony, we
reserve the right to exclude him / her from recognition night. Excluded 8th graders can pick up their diploma
the next day at Broadmoor. We hope that you discuss this matter with your child. We feel that all parents,
along with your sons / daughters deserve the opportunity to enjoy the special recognition you receive on this
evening. Therefore, we are asking for your cooperation in the following areas:
Each family will receive four (4) tickets in the middle of May. Everyone who is admitted must have a
ticket. This will provide ample space for all parents and families to enjoy the ceremony.
Be respectful of each other during the ceremony. Children attending the ceremony must sit with their
parents and remain seated at all times and refrain from any inappropriate behavior.
If you are planning to take pictures or video tape the ceremony, please be courteous to other families in
attendance. We recommend that if you are planning to video tape or take pictures that you arrive early to
establish your seating in the most convenient location.
It is NOT necessary for students to dress formally for the evening. We ask that the girls refrain from
clothes that are too short, tight fitting, or of such a nature as to be suggestive or revealing. Wearing a
formal dress is not a requirement. Boys can wear nice casual clothes such as cotton dress slacks and a
nice shirt and a tie if desired.
We strongly discourage renting limousines for this event. Please keep in mind that our students are in
junior high school and not graduating from high school or college.
With your cooperation and support we can make our ceremony a truly dignified celebration of the successes
of our students over the past two years.
Sincerely,
The Broadmoor Junior High Staff
