🎭 A Day of Firsts & Magic For Kindergarten! ✨🚌

Our kindergarteners took their very first field trip today to see Velveteen The Musical at the Des Moines Civic Center! It was a magical experience for the kiddos— from climbing onto the yellow school bus (a brand-new milestone for many of our little ones!) to the final curtain call of the show. It was an incredible day from start to finish!

Last Friday, 1st grade got to embark on “Iowa’s wildest adventure” on their Field Trip to the Blank Park Zoo! It’s safe to say they had a blast! 🦓🦒🦍
