The maypole is an important part of Moving Up Day. The sixth graders perform a dance for the entire school and attempt to weave the maypole.


As the end of the year approaches,  many students are awaiting Moving Up Day — when the buses pull out and summer begins.

 The Oracle took to the Archer campus to ask: What are you looking forward to most on 11-Namazie-LeylaMoving Up Day?

 

Leyla Namazie ’17: “The seniors moving up — being able to dress up, be all enthusiastic,  jump around, make noise and dance.”
