One Last Horrah!

The year has come to a close. It's so hard to believe. This is an amazing group of girls and I have so enjoyed teaching them this year. It truly has been an honor. To thank them and celebrate together one last time, we walked to Sherwood Gardens for a surprise luau breakfast picnic (Thanks to all the moms!). We laughed, had water gun fights, ate until our bellies were full, and blew bubbles. Sadly, we had to say good-bye to two of our classmates who are heading to Garrison next year. We will miss them terribly. We presented them with a scrapbook that each girl had added a page to remember their years together. R and M - we'll miss you - please visit often! xo, Ms. Cheston

Farewell to our 6th Age Buddies!

It's been a great year that we have shared with our 6th Age buddies.  We have made  cards for them, created craft projects and learned what it means to be respectful with them.  They have brightened our day and the girls are so tender and genuine with them.  We printed pictures of each girl with their buddy, then they made and delivered a card to their buddy to thank them for a great year and wish them well in 7th Age!  Hopefully, these connections will continue.  Thank you 6th Agers for letting us share your year with you!
