Eliot Arts Magnet Celebrates 8th Grade Students with Breakfast and Promotion Preparations

Eliot Arts Magnet Academy recently celebrated its 8th grade students with a special breakfast event. Hosted on campus and made possible through the generous support of the PTSA and dedicated school staff, the morning provided students with a meaningful opportunity to come together, reflect on their journey, and look ahead to high school.

As part of the celebration, students received commemorative 8th grade T-shirts and yearbooks—keepsakes honoring their time at Eliot and the memories they’ve created. The festive spirit continued with promotion practice as students prepared for their upcoming ceremony.

More than just a farewell to middle school, this event served as a testament to the resilience and unity of the Eliot Arts Magnet community—especially in a year marked by recovery from the Eaton Canyon Fire. In the face of challenges, the school continues to foster a vibrant, arts-integrated academic environment where students thrive.

The entire Eliot community is proud of the Class of 2025 and looks forward to celebrating their promotion in the days ahead.
