At Washington School Graduating to First Grade is a Big Deal!

It's the last week of school.  We're going to miss everyone.  The teachers and families are so warm and welcoming.  Each child is greeted with hugs and a kiss from the teacher every day.

 
The parents created a musical for all the graduating Kindergarten students and put on a big show and celebration for them.
Ivan and his friend, Zequi.
The kids had fun watching the show about the big news that they were entering first grade!

We all got to know each other as there are many family activities.

The kids were really proud to be graduated and big kids now! Incredible development of self esteem.

Lots and lots of balloons dropped from the halls - just didn't get the best photo of them.  We were enjoying the confetti explosion, literally, and balloons too much :-)
