8th Grade Dance

Here's Amity and posse, dressed in their 8th grade finest, for one last hurrah. 8th graders, as the "seniors" of the LV campus, get round one of the pomp and circumstance. They get dressed up and dance! There's a whole give a big speech about how you've grown and changed during your middle school years deal (known as "Exhibition" but has many striking parallels to a D'var a B'mitzvah kiddo would give?!) and some other fun stuff, too. There's even a graduation! It's kinda a big deal, and also the last time we'll really be parents to a middle schooler. The hours and days are long, sometimes even the weeks, but somehow the months and even the years do feel kinds short sometime. Pass the tissues, please?
