A Message of Thanks
The Kindergarten Team would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all those who came together and helped make this beloved holiday tradition possible! An extra special thanks to Jacquie McDonald, Mike Ranelli, Shannon Casteel, Lisa Wells, Benita Griffin, Liza Johnson, Rick Alfonso, Connie Coker, Leslie Edinberg, Christian Pazdersky, Pattie O’Neil, Jane Spohn, Jill Rowlett, and Sarah Hartman. We would also like to thank our amazing P.E. teachers for their flexibility, and for graciously sharing their space with us while we practiced in the MPR.
We are so grateful for all the support, encouragement, and love from all our St. Anne’s School staff family. We have loved seeing you watch our Kindergarten actors grow these past few weeks.
Finally, we can’t forget to thank all of our Kindergarten and Prekindergarten families. Thank you for sharing your superstars with us. We are so proud of them and feel blessed that we are all able to come together for such a special event.
From the bottom of our Friendly Beast hearts, thank you!
