Brag about Your Graduate on Potomac Patch

It’s that time of year again! Students will don the traditional cap and gown, grab their diploma and take on new challenges — and we want you to tell us all about it!

It’s graduation season and whether your kid is finishing preschool and heading to Kindergarten or graduating college to take on to the real world, Potomac Patch is a great place to share their accomplishments and wish them well. And, did we mention it’s free to post a graduation announcement?

Follow these steps to announce a graduation on Potomac Patch:

• Make sure you are a registered user. If you’re not, click on “Sign Up” in the top right-hand corner of the home page.
• Once you are logged in, click on the “News” tab on the home page and scroll down to “Announcements.”
• In the top right-hand corner there is a green box that says, “Announce it to everyone!” Click on that box and fill out the fields of the form. Make sure to choose “Graduation” as the category!
• When you are done, you can add photos and video of your graduate to make it really special. Baby photos that can embarrass your graduate are certainly encouraged!
• Scroll to the bottom and click "Post my announcement" for it to be featured on Potomac Patch.

Be sure to send around the link to friends and family so they can see your work and share in your proud moment. If you run into problems, send an e-mail to sarahbeth@patch.com and I can try to help talk you through it. Be sure to check the photo gallery for some screen shots of the process. 

Congratulations from Potomac Patch and good luck to all of the Potomac graduates!
