This was also a final hurrah for our preschoolers to hang out with friends and family one last time before starting kindergarten in the fall. - - - A big thanks to all the staff at Paulo Freire Center for your hard work, dedication, and for putting together such a wonderful celebration for our families. 🎨 #ChicagoCommons #ThrivingAcrossGenerations #EarlyEducation #CommunityCelebration #BackoftheYardsEvents https://lnkd.in/gfwUgcAB
