    Dear Parents and Guardians of the TMS Class of 2018,

                                    We are excited to announce that after many years without, we are finally bringing back a Semi-Formal Dance for our 8th grade class.  The dance will be held on June 1st from 7:00pm-9:00pm.  The 8th graders have been requesting this dance (it feels like) since they came to TMS in the 5th grade, and we are thrilled to be able to move forward with this event.  Our goal is that every 8th grade student will attend.  This brings us to the reason for this letter.   We would like to offer everyone the opportunity to attend, and we would like to be able to provide a modest yet exciting event…this of course takes money.  We are going to charge $5.00 per ticket in hopes that this will defer the cost for some of the things we would like to do (a dessert bar, a photo booth, favors, etc.)  We know that many 8th graders will be able to contribute, but we are also aware that many will struggle with funds to attend the dance as well as funds to acquire the appropriate semi-formal attire that will be required.  At this time we are requesting donations of any amount to help make this event the best it can be.  Please note that we realize that not everyone is willing or able to donate, but if you are able it would be much appreciated.  We will accept cash or checks (made payable to Thompson Middle School).  Donations can be turned in to Lindsey Cruff in Room 115 or Beth Raffa in Room 108.  We are really looking forward to a fun and memorable event for our 8th graders.  We will miss them next year and want to send them off with a wonderful memory of their 8th grade year!

    Sincerely,

    Lindsey Cruff,     Beth Raffa     and     Dave Viera
