Smiles at farewell

Students in the prekindergarten classrooms of Ms. Fagnan and Mrs. Castellano, and Ms. Mead and Ms. Chase gathered in the gym at Gowanda Elementary School on Monday, for a joyous – and very cute – “moving-up” ceremony. Surrounded by loved ones, every Pre-K student was recognized for their hard work during the 2024-25 academic year with a personalized award. The future kindergartners were applauded for learning milestones as well as for their kindness, creativity, and many other positive attributes. Following the ceremony, the members of the Class of 2038 posed for photo opportunities with their guests and were invited to enjoy some refreshments.
