On Friday, May 8th, our preschool students and their special adults enjoyed an unforgettable field trip to the Great Plains Zoo and Sertoma Park! From exploring amazing animals to playing and making memories together, it was a day filled with smiles, laughter, and sunshine. 🌞💚
The beautiful weather made the adventure even more special, and we are so thankful for the families who joined us for this exciting day of learning and fun outside the classroom.
A HUGE thank you goes to SouthWest Excavating for their generous donation to help offset trip costs and keep this opportunity affordable for our families. Your support helped make this memorable experience possible! 👏
Enjoy a few snapshots from our day at the zoo! 📸🦁
