Pre-Kindergarten & Kindergarten Stepping Up Ceremonies

Greetings PS 101 Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten Families:

We are excited to celebrate our students and recognize the many accomplishments, milestones, and achievements they have reached throughout the school year. Certain moments in a child’s educational journey are especially meaningful, and we look forward to sharing these special celebrations with our PS 101 families.

Our Stepping Up ceremonies will take place within the classroom setting and have been scheduled with designated dates and times so families may enjoy this memorable experience together.

Each student will receive two tickets for family members to attend the ceremony. Tickets will be distributed the day before the scheduled Stepping Up event(s).

*Due to limited classroom space, we kindly ask for your cooperation in refraining from bringing additional children, strollers/carriages to the ceremony. We greatly appreciate your understanding and support in helping us ensure a safe and comfortable experience for all guests.
