The Official Notre Dame Elementary School, Utica NY

Our 5th Grade class at Notre Dame Elementary celebrated with a Moving-Up Prayer Service, marking the completion of their elementary school journey and the beginning of an exciting new chapter! This fall, these students will move on to Notre Dame Jr./Sr. High School, where they will continue to grow in discipleship, scholarship, citizenship, and leadership. Congratulations to the 5th Graders as they take this important next step!

Oh, the places they will go!

And just like that, our incredible 5th graders have officially reached the end of their elementary school journey! Today is their very last day!

Take a look at this checklist- every single item represents a memory made, a challenge conquered, and a milestone achieved this year. From tackling tough new subjects to growing into amazing leaders, they have checked off all the boxes and crushed every goal in sight.

We are so incredibly proud of the hard work, kindness, and resilience this class has shown. As they close this chapter and step into the exciting new adventure of middle school, we wish them the absolute best of luck!

Keep shining bright, class of 2026. The world is waiting for you!

Congratulations to the Kindergarten Class of 2026. You learned your lessons well, made new friends and performed over 300 acts of kindness. God Bless!
