The Stags and the Wildcats would like to thank everyone who came out on Friday evening to support our vendors at the Craft Fair and Deck the Halls! 🎄
Families enjoyed a fun-filled evening with games, hot chocolate, cookie decorating, ornament creation, and a winter coat giveaway—there truly was something for everyone!
This event was made possible thanks to the incredible efforts of our staff, students, volunteers, and families who helped plan, support, and participate. We are so grateful for our school community and look forward to collaborating again in the future!
