My Project
In our community, Kindergarten graduation is a rite of passage. The parents look forward to this every year. Especially our ESL parents from Africa and Venezuela. Each year, we put on a performance for the parents, their families, and the entire school. The students will wear these caps and gowns for the program. I love using caps and gowns because the parents can keep them for years to come. They are of great sentimental value. I would like to help the parents out by saving them this expense this year.
Graduation is a wonderful event and something I look forward to every year but with a bit of sadness seeing our young ones go on to first grade.
