The Class of 2026 at one Catholic school in Bay Ridge is helping prepare the next generation of graduates: the eighth graders at St. Patrick Catholic Academy passing on their graduation caps to the Brooklyn school’s kindergartners.

In the caption of the video posted on Facebook, the passing of the hats symbolizes a journey that starts in small steps and ends with big dreams.

The school says once you are a St. Patrick Catholic Academy student, you are always part of the family.

The eighth graders are excited to take the next step.

They held a “Draft Day” to announce their high school choices, telling their fellow graduates what schools they got into and which ones they will attend in the fall.

We wish them the best of luck at their high school “picks.”
