The day the seniors receive their caps and gowns, they go to their old middle and elememtwry schools and parade through the halls while the younger kids applaud them and teachers come out to hug former students. Then the grads pose for pictures in front of their elementary schools.
It is one of the best traditions in FCPS.
Our school has a lot of military kids who might not have gone to elementary or middle school in FCPS. The school hosts something for them, but a lot of them choose to go with their friends back to the elementary schools since it is so much fun.
Ours graduated in 2015 in FCPS and their class did this.

In the past, Ft. Belvoir Elementary School has invited any military senior to come walk at their school.
That might be what they do.
I know they do something for the military kids who didn't attend lower grades here, so they are still able to parade in their caps and gowns.
My kids friends who fit that category just ho along with their friends.
It is a fun, fun event.

They won’t. They don’t have time for that crap.

It's more for the current kids to see the graduating seniors. Creates something for them to look up and forward to. It is not unusual for schools to have high turnover.

Pretty much walk through the school halls and they have a parade.

MY DS is exciting to do her Senior walk soon, but we noticed on the website that 0 of all teachers there and just a few of her specials teachers are there.
The PE teacher and Art Teacher is that common?
I know they had very toxic principal so that could be one of the reasons.....
only a few of her teachers "retired". We noticed most of them transfer schools.
