Olivia's kinder graduation and end of the year party

Olivia had her kinder graduation on the Monday before school got out.  Before her graduation, I got invited to her classroom's volunteer appreciation party.  The kids sang us some really cute songs and gave us a lot of thanks.  It was a really cute tribute to helping out this year in her classroom.  Afterwards we got to go to the cafeteria where they were having the graduation ceremony.  The ceremony was very similar to Brandon's but it was so cute watching Olivia graduate.  She was so excited.  It was also bittersweet to say goodbye to both Olivia and Brandon's teacher Mrs. Borrelli who was such an awesome teacher.  Olivia is so ready for 1st grade now!  She is in the highest reading group in her class, can write to 200, scored past a 1st grade level on her DIBELs test (early literacy indicator test), can add, subtract, and is an enthusiastic learner best of all.  We are so proud of our newly graduated kindergarten especially since she is one of the youngest in her class.

 Olivia had a fun end of the year party on Wednesday where she got to play outside games and then went back to the classroom to enjoy ice cream sundaes to celebrate learning how to spell her full name, knowing her birth date, how to tie her shoes, her address, and our phone number.  It was a really fun way to end her school year.
