Kindergarten, Here They Come: 2023 Preschool Graduation

May 31st, 2023

Wednesday, May 31st was special day at Flance Early Learning Center as we celebrated the graduation of our 15 preschool students who will be matriculating to kindergarten in the fall. Parents, relatives, and friends gathered in support of our graduates and their classmates as they sang and danced to their graduation songs. It was a bittersweet but rewarding experience to see our amazing youngsters say goodbye to their early childhood experience.

At Flance, our overarching goal is to ensure that all children are kindergarten ready. We are proud that several graduates have been with us since infancy, and we are committed to providing quality early education to all children in our care. We are honored to have been a part of their early education journey and cannot wait to see the amazing things they will accomplish in the future.

To our graduating families, we want to express our deepest gratitude for entrusting Flance with the responsibility of nurturing and educating your children. We are thrilled to have been your child's garden to grow in. It has been a privilege to witness your child's development over the years, and we are grateful for the memories and joy you and your child have brought to our community. We would like to give a special shoutout to our education team who planned this adorable event, as well as Ms. Barbara from St. Louis Office of Financial Empowerment for the goodie bags, and all staff for supporting the graduates throughout their time at Flance.

As our graduates begin their adventures in their new schools, we wish them well and know that they will continue to achieve great things. Kindergarten, here they come!
