curriculum celebration
Reflections from Katie

One of our most important traditions at Cambridgeport is our annual school-wide Curriculum Celebration. Children come to see this event as something they can look forward to all year. The Curriculum Celebration is consistently the event that has the greatest turn out of any event. The way the evening is structured, it is critical for all children to come and to have a family member or adult special friend with them.

Who Are the People in Your Neighborhood?
Meet Christian Baynes, a Kindergartner in Justin’s class!

How many years have you been at Cambridgeport? Let's see. Three years. First Lorna and then Justin. And Special Start!

What do you want to be when you grow up? A security guard because there are so many bad guys in the world. I want to save the world!

What is your favorite thing to do? Climb. Because when I went to camp I went to rock climbing. It was awesome! I wasn’t scared. I like climbing!

If you could be an animal what would you be? A cheetah because they can run fast and because they are meat eaters.
