We shared a special evening at Ashley for our 5th Grade Celebration of Learning! 💙💛

Students walked the stage, celebrated and captured photos with family & friends, and enjoyed refreshments from our PTA Sponsors- Andy’s Frozen Custard, Tiff’s Treats, and Sprouts.

Bach to Rock McKinney provided the music, Pony Up Party Rentals setup our beautiful balloons, and the Yard Card Queen McKinney donated our awesome signs. It was a great night sending this special 5th grade class off to middle school! Congratulations!! 👏🎓
