Austintown Community Church Preschool hosted a 50th anniversary celebration on May 21.
Director Amy Teeters said that the party was a way to get the community together and celebrate the school.
“We have changed a lot during the years; it’s amazing we have been here for 50 years,” Teeters said.
During the event, community members gathered at the pavilion behind the school that was decorated for the occasion.
“It’s a smaller occasion, just a way for us to say thank you to everyone who has been here,” Teeters said.
The school displayed scrapbooks with photos from past classes, which community members could look through.
Students played on the playground and in a bounce house provided by Austintown Bounce.
Preschoolers also performed a number of songs for the community members gathered.
“We wanted to do a little show for them as a thank you,” Teeters said.
After the performance everyone enjoyed a celebratory cake.
“We are so happy ACC has been here for 50 years,” Teeters said. “And we hope for 50 more.”
