I am so proud to have had your children in Preschool class for my first year teaching at UDIS. They have been so kind, happy, accepting, open-minded and adventurous. Every one of them is a credit to you as parents. I have been overjoyed to watch their growth and development as they learned to count, to share, to dress themselves and about their likes and dislikes. I know they will all enjoy success in their futures and I am excited to see them grow and develop further next year as they enter K1. Thank you for the privilege of letting me share in their journey, even if only for a short time. Congratulations to the graduating Preschool class of 2018/2019!
