Last Friday, our 4th grade Gators took their final walk through the halls of Gardens Elementary.

Cheered on by PreK–3rd grade students, staff, and families, they snapped into their farewell parade surrounded by so much pride, joy, and a few happy tears. What a gator-tastic way to celebrate the end of their elementary journey!

We are so proud of how much they’ve grown—from little hatchlings to confident leaders ready to take a bite out of middle school. It has truly been an honor to be part of their story.

Once a Gator, always a Gator 🐊—we can’t wait to see you return one day for your high school senior walk. 🎓

Mrs. Paige Schwartz, Our Most Involved!
She didn’t just join the challenge… she owned it! From campus events to supporting at district events, she’s everywhere YOU need her to be. Talk about Gator dedication!

Ms. Xitlali Zuniga for Perfect Attendance!
An entire school year of showing up and shining bright! Now that’s commitment you can count on every single day!

We’re so proud of you both for going above and beyond for our students and our school!
