I love all the festivities that the month of May brings, especially graduations! Matthew graduated from the Magruder High School Preschool class. He Is going to miss all the fun he had but we won’t miss the morning rush of getting him out the door. Overall, we were happy with his preschool experience but then again I didn’t have many expectations for preschool; I just wanted him to be familiar with a school environment so it will be an easy transition going to full day Kindergarten in the fall. My only major complaint was the dress standards of the teenage girls or the lack there-of, ugh…
Matthew’s graduation was way over the top with real robes and caps. I even got a little teary when they played “Pomp and Circumstance” as the preschoolers marched in the room. Each child had their name read and they got to walk over a little bridge. Then they were each presented with their very own scrapbook that the students worked in teams to create. It was filled with pictures from all the major events throughout the year. Matthew has loved looking at his over and over and over again.
We were trying to entertain Lucy before the graduation began and my sunglasses worked for a few minutes. The picture to the right is of Matthew and his class doing their last “circle time” before the graduation.
After the graduation, the high school students put on a carnival that included games, crafts, and a clown who brought a real life bunny for the kids to pet. Fun had by all!
Matthew’s two favorite preschool people, Clara and Mrs Boyle! Onward to Kindergarten!!
