Kindergarten students finished their ABC bootcamp this week. In celebration of their learning, students decorated a letter vest to showcase their learning in a parade.
We would love to say a special THANK YOU to Hy-Vee for donating the paper bags and Shelli’s Shortstop for donating a certificate for each student to get a free cookie! Thank you for supporting our students in their learning!
Video of the parade is located in the comments.
