Today was a day to remember at Ryan Elementary as we celebrated two incredible milestones. Our Kindergarten and 5th grade Bobcats crossed the stage during their end-of-year ceremonies filled with smiles, cheers, and unforgettable moments. Our Kindergarten graduates lit up the room with pride as they took their first big step toward becoming first graders. Their growth this year has been nothing short of amazing. Our 5th grade students walked proudly across the stage, closing their chapter at Ryan and getting ready for the exciting adventure of middle school. Their hard work, leadership, and determination have made a lasting mark on our campus. We are so proud of their achievements, from academic success to personal growth, and today we celebrated every bit of it. Thank you to our wonderful families, teachers, and staff for your constant support and for helping make this day so special for our students. Congratulations to our Kindergarten and 5th grade Bobcats. Keep shining bright and reaching for the stars. We believe in you and we are cheering you on every step of the way. ⭐🎓📚👏💜
