One of the things that makes Poly so special is that we are a K–12 school. This year, we’re celebrating that unique aspect of our community by bringing together our youngest students, kindergarteners, and our oldest, seniors, for several special gatherings. These opportunities give them a chance to get to know one another, play games, and enjoy spending time together.
Our first gathering was truly magical! It was wonderful to see kindergarteners and seniors playing, laughing, and enjoying classic games like tag and Duck, Duck, Goose. Our youngest students lit up around the seniors, while the seniors enjoyed a welcome break and plenty of smiles during an especially busy time of year.
It was a beautiful reminder of the power of connection across generations and one of the many things that makes the Poly community so special. We look forward to watching these relationships grow throughout the year!
