Five Fifth Grade Quaker Ridge Classes Move Up

On the warm, sunny morning of June 14, the five classes of Quaker Ridge 5th grade had their moving-up ceremony. It was held outside on the blacktop and field so as to not be space-limited. The fifth graders walked out of the school to a clap-out – with students from the younger grades lining the hallways and the outside pathway, cheering the fifth graders on. The students sang two songs from their fifth grade concert, “Banaha” and “I Can See Clearly Now,” led by music teacher, Andrew Brown.

Principal, Felix Gil gave his message of appreciation to the QRS Class of 2024. Members of the fifth grade student council took turns giving thanks to their teachers and then presented a class gift. Each of the fifth grade teachers then presented certificates to their respective classes: Mrs. Burns; Mrs. Gega and Mrs. Geraghty; Mrs. Kenney and Ms. Smith; Mr. Liebowitz and Mrs. Meade; and Ms. Marty. It was a celebratory experience for all.

Congratulations to the QRS Class of 2024! Now onto Scarsdale Middle School!
