On May 24 Wake Christian Academy held its annual Kindergarten Graduation ceremony.

The theme for this year’s event was “Kindergarten Boot Camp,” and the students performed a number of songs to share with family and friends all they learned in school this year. Some even did push-ups and lifted pretend weights to demonstrate counting by fives and 10s.

Two students from each class were awarded the Christian Character Award. Julie Strickland, of Garner, Caedmon Berry, from Fuquay-Varina, Jack Mason, from Raleigh, and Hannah Hutto, from Clayton, were this year’s winners. A total of 42 children graduated and are excited to begin first grade in August.

Wake Christian Academy has been a leader in K-12 Christian education since 1966. Applications are still being accepted for the 2013-2014 school year. For more information on the school and its fully-accredited programs, visit www.wakechristianacademy.com.
