Promotion

Promotion will be held on Thursday, June 12. 2025 at 8:00 AM at Portola Middle School.

At Portola Middle School, students are expected to attend school daily and on time, work hard, behave well, and perform well academically. These requirements are essential for our 8th-grade students to participate in Promotion and our 8th Grade Activities. 

Promotion Details:

• Thursday, June 12, 2025 at 8:00 AM
• No tickets required
• Seats are first come, first serve

Additional 8th Grade Activities:                                   ​​

• Olympic Day
• 8th Grade Knott's Berry Farm Field Trip

• 8th Grade Promotion Ceremony

We look at 8th-grade students' behavior, attendance, and academics to determine their eligibility to participate in end-of-the-year activities and the Promotion Ceremony. Regarding the academic requirement, it is imperative that students do not have any failing grades in their last trimester. In the event of any F's in previous trimesters during 7th and 8th Grade, students are mandated to complete Credit Recovery.  We encourage you to contact your student's counselor if you have any questions or concerns about your student's promotion status.
