Thank You!
Thank you to all of the families who donated supplies for our Thanksgiving Feast. We had a great time: enjoying soup, pumpkin pie pudding cups, and juice. We shared what we are thankful for, and it was very sweet to hear many students share their thanks for their families and for school! I hope you all had a wonderful start to the holiday season!
