Four Safety Patrol members greeted the guests in the lobby, while the Student Council officers set the tables in the dining room. They put beautiful, sparkling cen- terpieces on the tables. The centerpieces were made by the Head Start and Pre-K4 students. There were also two colorful folding paper turkeys for the guest table. Thank you to Mrs. Illig. The students in Pre-K4 wore turkey head- bands! The second grade and first grade students made their own fancy placemats, the kindergarteners dressed like pilgrims wearing hats, bonnets and collars. The entire third grade class served the students, staff and guests. Each of the third grade students wore colorful and interesting aprons. The food was tasty: turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, corn, stuffing, applesauce, corn bread, and rolls. For dessert we ate pumpkin pudding with whipped cream and vanilla wafers. Everybody drank pink lemonade! Some of the guests were Mrs. Stiker, Mrs. Flint, Mr. Cunningham, Mrs. Wilkinson, and Mr. Johnson. We had many other people who also work for the school district sitting at the guest table, too. The Little Old Lady That Wasn’t Afraid of Anything, it is a title to a very amusing book, but Ms. Cathy Matthews, classroom assistant, made a few changes and turned it into a play. The four characters in the play were portrayed by 5th grade students. The students performed the play for 3rd and 4th grade classes and everyone loved it. Great job everyone!
