CONGRATULATIONS to our graduating Nature Pre-K class! These children have grown so much at Rock Hollow Woods and we're proud to have witnessed such amazing transformations. It's bittersweet to send two of them off to Kindergarten, but we're incredibly blessed to have THREE of them returning next year in addition to seven new friends. Adventure is out there!
