My Project

We want to have an amazing graduation and party to celebrate this year’s graduating class's achievements. The gift bags, Kool-Aids, and trinkets celebrate their work. The Class of 2024 is special since most of our students have been with us for two years due to looping preschool and Pre-K4. It has been an amazing two years, and we are sad to see our babies go but hope we can send them off to kindergarten with an amazing color party and graduation ceremony to follow! This will also be a time for us to celebrate their parents and all the hard work they have done to get their scholars this far in their academic careers!
