Rachel's kindergarten graduation!


Rachel had the best kindergarten teacher I could have ever asked for! Mrs. Hansen has a love for these little kids that some teachers seem to lack. Rachel was always bringing home little games that she had put together to help the kids learn. When ever I would go in for parent teacher conferences, I could literally feel how much she genuinely cared about Rachel and how she was progressing. She would always ask what else I thought she could do to help Rachel learn and succeed. Mrs. Hansen, in my opinion, always went above and beyond! She can be summed up in one word, AMAZING!


Rachel and her grandparent classroom helper, Nanna D.
Rachel really enjoyed having her there! She was GREAT!


Standing outside her classroom in her cute cap and gown. She was so excited to graduate, that that's all she talked about for weeks!


Rachel and her classmates singing in their graduation program. The last few weeks of school she would come home, we would do her homework and then she would go around the house singing her graduation songs at the top of her lungs. She told me a few days after graduation that she didn't want to go to 1st grade unless Mrs. Hansen could be her teacher. Rachel really loved her. (Rachel is in the top row on the very left.)

  1. I can't believe she had to wear a cap and gown. That is crazy. She looks cute though.

  2. I thought it was rather cute that they had a real cap and gown. You could tell they felt so big! It was fun. She does look cute doesn't she?
