A Joyful Send-Off: Compass Children's Center Graduation 2025

On Friday afternoon, the Compass Children’s Center community came together to celebrate a major milestone—graduation day for the Class of 2025! Families, teachers, and friends filled the space with smiles, applause, and more than a few happy tears as our preschoolers marked the end of a wonderful year and the beginning of their next big adventure: kindergarten. 

Program Director Heidi Lamar welcomed families and shared reflections on the year highlighting the strength, growth, and community that each child brings to Compass Children’s Center. Her words were followed by the presentation of diplomas, a moment made extra special by Preschool Site Supervisor Wei Ying Jiang, who joined Heidi in congratulating each and presenting them a personalized teddy bear. 

After the ceremony, families gathered for a lively reception featuring delicious food provided by Mariposas and an irresistible spread of cookies and doughnuts from STK Steakhouse. 

Check out these moments from the special day!
