Kingsgate Elementary celebrated its 50th Anniversary with exciting games, food, and smiles all around this week. There were friends in attendance who worked at Kingsgate when it opened in 1973. Former teachers, staff, and neighborhood friends stopped by to see how the school has changed and grown over the years. 

Dr. Robert Romines visited the celebration and noted that his first job teaching was at Kingsgate where he taught 5th grade. Visit the Kingsgate webpage here.
