We are so blessed to have all our students adopted each year by the Adopt a Classroom project organized by Jessica Boedeker and Megan Lavy. Every student in preschool through fourth grade had a book to unwrap due to their generosity. This project would not be possible without the support of numerous individuals, organizations, and businesses throughout the community. Thanks for putting our students on your Christmas list.
Mrs. Niffen's third graders even decked out their desks to make the room festive!
Does this make anybody think of a famous Christmas song?
