Ms. Simpson's 2nd grade class had a fantastic time at our holiday party today. We played bingo, ate snacks, held a classroom gift exchange, and decorated some Christmas "trees". To quote one of the kids, "This is the best Christmas, EVER!!!"
Thank you, so much, to our classroom parents for donating snacks, purchasing a gift for the exchange, and to a few who donated a few extra gifts for those in need. We appreciate your support!
