A virtual culmination is a unique event that we have never had before. In order to make sure that the ceremony is a special event for our culminating sixth graders, we ask you to follow the recommendations listed below.
The culmination will have a video feed.
-
All students are strongly encouraged to dress appropriately for the ceremony. Just pretend that this is a real ceremony in the auditorium and wear something nice.
-
All participants are encouraged to sit in front of the device during the ceremony just like they would in the auditorium.
-
If you can, please avoid eating or drinking in front of the device during the time of the ceremony.
Please make sure that your video feed has your name. If you are using a device that does not have your name, please click on the three dots in the top right of your picture and change your name. We would appreciate it if parents change their names as well to something we can recognize. For example, the parents of Maria may change it to Maria’s Parents. Click on the picture to see how to change the your name during Zoom.
Please make sure to update Zoom to version 5.0 at THIS LINK . You can also click on the picture to get to the Zoom Download center. Please update the app on your tablets and phones. We suggest that you rehearse running a Zoom meeting before the actual culmination. If your child regularly attended his/her teachers’ Zoom classes, he/she should know how to do it.
We ask all our participants to behave appropriately as they would during the ceremony in the auditorium. However, we understand that we are bringing the ceremony to our students’ homes where all kinds of emergencies and situations may arise. As much as we would love to see our students’ beautiful faces during the ceremony, please feel free to turn off the camera if you need to do so Please note that the chat and the audio will be disabled for the duration of the ceremony.
Thank you for your support,
Your Sixth Grade Teachers
