Kindergarten graduation at Valley View Elementary took a massive audience and provided a ‘making memories’ themed experience on May 30. The event included a three station rotation:
The Playground Station
The playground has been a critical area for our students to develop healthy norms for play and social interaction. Students climb, share, create, follow rules, play games, and build skills necessary for school citizenship. During this station, families were welcomed to play along with your kindergartener. School days do go by quickly so it was important our families had a chance to have fun being a KID with their KID at the Playground Station.
The Ceremony Station
The VVE Gym was a highlight of the day. Students from each class took to the stage. They shared songs, were recognized by name & future career aspiration, and were celebrated as graduates.
The Photo Station
At this station, graduates had the opportunity for two photos: 1) A Class Photo 2) Photo Booth (with props). The photo opportunity allowed for families to be creative in making the memories we hope last a lifetime!
