Q and U Together Forever

The recent Wedding of Q and U was a lesson in togetherness and grammar for the kindergarten classes. On Friday, January 10 the Kelly Center was transformed into a wedding chapel for the uniting of the letters Q and U, officiated by Minister Quentin (a.k.a. John Grega, Director of Religious Studies, Character, and Service).

Quite a number of “Q” words were present at the ceremony including the paper quarters (instead of flowers) dropped by the queens and quarterbacks who were the wedding guests. Teachers planned the wedding to teach students the sound of the letter Q and the fact that Q needs U to make words like quake, queen, quick, etc. A festive reception, including cupcakes decorated by the students, dancing, and party favor bubbles followed the ceremony.
