On Thursday May 7, Saint Henry Preschool held their Graduation in the form of a drive-in. Preschool Teacher Brenda Buechler felt that something as special as this needed to be celebrated despite COVID-19 while still socially distancing. So she thought, “Why not have a drive in so they could all still celebrate together, but do it from the safety of their cars?”
