Holiday Traditions, December 2011

Wow, it was quite a ride planning this event.  In short, it felt like a festival for 1,000+ high school students... oh, wait - that's what it was  (smile).  It was a bit stressful just because it was my first time planning a school-wide event, and it had always been so successful in years past (under the direction of Ms. Eaton).
