Lawrenceville, GA — Families and friends commemorated the pre-kindergarten and kindergarten children at the Primrose School of Five Forks at their graduation on Tuesday, May 21st. More than 45 proud four and five-year-olds celebrated a major educational milestone as they walked across the stage—in miniature caps and gowns—to receive a diploma. The day marked the students’ completion of private pre-kindergarten and kindergarten programs at Primrose Schools, where students were taught the Primrose Balanced Learning® curriculum, which blends academics, play and character development.
A slide show of pictures collected throughout the year was shared with families and friends. Pre-Kindergarten graduates performed several songs including "Days of the Week", "Kindergarten Here We Come", "Oh We’re Off to Kindergarten", "We Can Do It", "When the School Year is Over" and cheered "Stop Drop and Roll to the Beat" and "The Adams Family" melody. Kindergarten graduates performed songs including "We’ve Got the Whole World in our Hands", "When You Wish Upon a Star", "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah" and closed with "First Grade, First Grade (Kindergarten)".
Preschool education is the foundation for a child’s future. Primrose Schools strives to ensure that its graduates are ready to succeed academically, socially, emotionally, physically and creatively in elementary school. The Bracken Assessment indicates that Primrose students perform at about twice the level of their peers and also show 1.3 times more yearly growth. Results from a survey of parents whose children went on from Primrose to elementary school show that parents rated their children above 90% in school readiness factors such as their ability to relate to peers, enthusiasm for learning, positive classroom behavior, concern and caring for others and ease of transition.
