一肖一码中持s Child Development Center celebrated the graduation of 19 children in its annual Preschool Graduation.
The CDC prepares children for kindergarten, focusing on their cognitive development, language development, physical development, literacy, mathematics, socialization, and more. Each graduate received a Preschool Diploma and a Future Wildcat T-shirt.
The ceremony creates mixed emotions for the CDC staff.
We just love graduation and I cry every single year, said CDC Director Anna Lisa Acosta. I get so attached to these kiddos and so emotional watching them grow and leave. We are privileged and honored to be able to care for these children. Some we have with us for 5 years and others for a few months, but no matter the time they always make an impact on us.
Acosta said that she hopes that the experiences at the CDC will have an everlasting effect on each child.
We hope we have made an impact on them, she said. My goal is that later in life when faced with a challenge or new situation, they hear one of our voices in their heads reminding them they are brave, smart, tough, kind, and they can accomplish anything.
