My Project

Kindergarten is such a memorable year. My students have grown physically, academically and socially all while making fun memories in the process. They deserve a memorable end of the year show and celebration with their classmates to top our great year off!

I want to provide my students and their parents with unforgettable kindergarten memories.

I am asking for decorations to decorate the gym that goes with our theme "Our Future Is So Bright We're Going to Need Shades." It would be such a great moving up ceremony if they walked into the gym and saw all the amazing decorations. I can't wait to surprise them and put a smile on their faces.
