***Kindergarten YEAR END Celebration - Date & Time TBD

As kindergarten changes so rapidly with rising expectations and standards, from half day to full day, so do the traditions. It used to be a given that at the end of every child’s kindergarten year, a graduation ceremony (some that even included caps and gowns) would take place. As the times change, the traditional end of year kindergarten graduation has evolved into an end of year celebration in most areas. I know schools do it differently everywhere, but the main components remain the same: we celebrate your child's first year of "big school".

Even with all of the evolving changes, there remains a special magic found only in kindergarten by our students as well as their families. Providing this simple, yet magical, End of Year Celebration will encapsulate the year perfectly.

Please keep an eye out for details from your child's teacher!
