Class of 2022
As adults we might expect some students to have difficulty when asked the question about what they would like to be when they grow up. Maybe this is because as adults we contemplate this question with the memories of growing up, and adding to that what we have learned along the way.
Welcome to the Class of 2022
For this group of kindergarten students, the question was not so complicated but rather an idea of how they look at the world happening around them and how they perceive they will fit into this. For them, it is a simple case of getting taller, and following their dreams, without any limitations.
Perhaps, if a supplement like this had been around for us as we graduated from our safe kindergarten class and prepared to “grow up”, we would look back on it as a way for us to remind ourselves of how limitless we felt in their shoes and as a way to regain the boldness to plow ahead into the future before us.
As you read through these entries, imagine the children and their dreams as they look at traditional roles that they feel they will fit into and the non-traditional roles that they strive to achieve. They answer with such thought and have no hesitation in how they will achieve their dreams. You will chuckle as we did.
Someday this amazing group of students will look back on this issue and maybe some will laugh at their answers, but hopefully more will be able to remember how “growing up” could be this easy and limitless.
“If growing up is the process of creating ideas and dreams about what life should be, then maturity is letting go again,” said Mary Beth Danielson, an American writer.
Thank you to all of the teachers, teaching assistants and parents who spend the time shaping these little individuals each day. We hope you enjoy this publication as much as we enjoy producing it each year.
