Lari’s 5th Grade Ceremony

Today, June 5th, was the last day of school and Lari’s last day at Wilderness Oak Elementary School.  We attended the ceremony and it was awesome!  We are so proud of Larissa and Arianna.  We were not able to see Arianna today.  She is also very excited today is the last day of school.  Arianna will go into the 2nd grade!!

There were 5 classes of 5th Graders today.  This is a very large group of children.  When they all got situated, I could see Lari looking all around to see if she could spot her family.

The Principal and Teachers gave very moving speeches as they see these students move on to the next level. 

Each of the classes had a student representative that spoke at this ceremony.  Lari spoke for her class.  Each child had their own thoughts of the past six years (Kindergarten to 5th).  We were so impressed with each of the Speakers but when Lari began her speech, we were truly touched.  She did a wonderful job and was so self confident.  We are so proud of her.  Great Job, Lari!  Congratulations, Mamacita!

Her Teacher, Mrs. Portlock, stands with her as she prepares to present her speech.
