Travelers' Pie Party
Travelers have been learning about the meaning of Thanksgiving. Students invited staff from SACS to show their gratefulness (11-22-2016), and invited families as well to celebrate cultural unity. Pie was served and the students got to show off the table manners they have been practicing. Some students also spoke about what they are thankful for. It was a wonderful time to be together. Thank you to all the families who were able to make it!
