Submitted by heidi.groneman on

The Kindergarten students from Rees Elementary worked so hard!  They started back in January and learned basic elements of dance every week.  Their teachers Mrs.Memmott, Mrs. Chidester, and Ms. Putnam helped to choreograph  dances to music from the 1920's, 1950's, 1960's, 1970's, 1980's, and 2020's in anticipation of their performances at KIndergarten Graduation on May 21, 2021.  The students did an awesome job!  We are so proud of them! Congratulations Rees Eagles!

Sometimes it’s fun to take a look way back,
