Floral Park Bellerose School pre-K students wrapped up the school year on a happy note during a graduation celebration that included their parents and family members.

Donning adorable blue graduation caps, students recited the poem, “Who Are You Today?” and sang songs, including “Pizza Man,” “Pre-K Had Me a Blast,” “We’re Moving Up to Kindergarten” and “You Got a Friend in Me” to their class’ visitors. Teachers Kelly Carey and Maria Balzano taught students the musical numbers, with choreographed dance moves and cute hand gestures that emphasized the lyrics.

After the class performances, students were called up one-by-one to receive their pre-K graduation certificate from their respective teacher. They also enjoyed watching a slideshow that included photos from the entire school year.

Principal Jamie Adams and Assistant Principal Dominique Siebert extended their congratulations to the students and their families.
