We Know Our Stuff

Toddlers ‘N Tots graduation is a night of celebration as the class presents: “We Know Our Stuff”. In their different colored caps and gowns, the boys and girls sing songs and interact with props in this dynamic academic program. Patriotic tunes fill the air as they sing about America and march proudly onto a stage to pomp and circumstance. Family members have plenty of opportunities to take pictures during this very special occasion.
