Mrs. Katus's 5th grade class made Christmas Grams for the whole elementary school students, teachers, cooks, custodians, sub teachers, office staff, and some staff at the high school. The 5th graders did this for an assignment to give instead of receiving a gift at Christmas. Each person also got a candy cane. Each 5th grader choose a person and wrote a nice message to them and the student got to read the message to that person. We hope this brought some joy this Holiday Season. Merry Christmas.
