Preschool Graduation 2025: Celebrating Our Little Graduates

Preschool Graduation 2025 at SAA was a joyful evening as 11 little graduates prepared to move on to kindergarten. The excitement was real, and the pride was visible in every smile.

With the help of their rockstar teachers, Malinda Cayabyab, Caitlin McCray, and Sara Rupnow, the kids performed a fun song with actions that had everyone smiling and clapping along. They also brought the classic story of the Three Little Pigs to life, complete with adorable piggy ears and noses—a performance that was a big hit with families and friends.

A slideshow followed, filled with memorable moments from the school year. From learning numbers and letters to sharing laughter during playtime, the images highlighted just how much the children grew and enjoyed their time together.

Teacher Melinda shared a touching message during the ceremony: “You’ve amazed us every day with your big hearts, your endless questions, and your joyful spirits. You’ve learned your numbers and letters and counting. You’ve learned how to share and take turns. You’ve learned how to respect one another, be compassionate, and be happy helpers.”

But above all, she reminded everyone, “The most important thing we’ve strived to teach you is kindness. When you’re kind to your parents, your teachers, your friends, and even to yourself, you are becoming more and more like Jesus.”

With that love and encouragement, each child proudly walked across the stage to receive their diploma, marking the first big milestone in their educational journey. Families took hundreds of photos to capture these precious moments.

The evening ended with a shared meal where families, teachers, and staff came together to celebrate this special occasion.
