Parents,

Congratulations to our 8^th grade graduates as they leave the cardinal nest and move on to high school next year. We are excited to hear about your many successes and accomplishments as alumni. Thank you to our amazing faculty members who have worked so hard to prepare them for their high school years.

Congratulations to our Kindergarteners who graduated this morning and are ready to move to the “big school” for first grade next year. Thank you to our wonderful Early Childhood Center faculty who have made their first years as cardinals so awesome and so fun!

Finally, congratulations to all parents as the school year ends. You did it! You made it! Thank you, thank you, thank you for all the support you have shown our faculty, staff, and especially our students during this school year. Enjoy your break from packing lunches, carpool lines, and homework!
