Pre-K Graduation Day was filled with pride, joy, and the sweetest memories! 🎓 Our littlest Rockets kicked off the celebration with salutes, the school creed, the Pre-K creed, and a heartwarming performance of Big, Big Dreams — followed by the Kindergarten Here We Come poem. Each student had their special moment, shaking hands with Mrs. Foster and Dr. Johnson and receiving a rose from Mrs. Booker. The slideshow had everyone smiling (and tearing up just a little)! The seed has been planted… now watch it grow. These amazing Rockets are ready to soar into Kindergarten! 🚀 Mrs. Parish is so proud of how far they’ve come and all they’ve accomplished this year. #PreKGraduation #KindergartenHereWeCome #BigBigDreams #LittleRocketsBigHearts #ProudToBeARocket 🚀 #OakdaleMoments
