🎶✨ Kindergarten Sing-Along Brings the House Down! ✨🎶
Last night, our gym was packed with proud families and filled with music as our Kindergarten students stole the show during their Sing-Along under the direction of Mr. Logan.
From classics like The Wheels on the Bus and B-I-N-G-O to Mr. Logan’s personal favorite, Five Green and Speckled Frogs, the kids sang their hearts out! Even better — several songs had the whole crowd joining in, proving once again that “A community that sings together stays together!”
What a wonderful evening celebrating music, smiles, and togetherness. Great job, Kindergarten! 💛🖤 #JAGPride #KindergartenSingAlong #CommunityThroughMusic
