We Need Your Help!
1. We want to do our best to extend an invitation to a contact at your child's school or a community group you are a part of, or a mentor, etc.... to come celebrate with you at Graduation. Please help us by emailing Kimberly the name (and if you have it, email address) of the contact so we can extend an invitation!
2. Kimberly will be working on putting together a slideshow of pictures that we will watch during graduation. If you have some pictures that you have taken and would like to share, please email them directly to Kimberly.

The closing session will consist of final evaluations, sharing affirmations and new learning, AND....
Come prepared to share your portfolio! You will be given 5 minutes (yes, we will time you as we will have to stay on track!)
Remember, we do not grade them so no worries about that! Your portfolio is a reflection of your learning during your PLA experience.
There is no right or wrong portfolio. You make it unique to you! If you have any worries or concerns, please let one of us know.
We will hang on to your portfolio and show case them during the graduation ceremony and then you get to take them home!
I promise you...you will take great pride in this work!
We can't wait!
