Parent Collaboration
The counselors worked with parents to conduct an extension to the Angel Tree and Holiday Food Drive. One of our lovely students had written a letter to Santa and asked Santa to provide coloring books and crayons to the sick children at the hospital. Santa granted her request and we took a trip to the local hospital. Our student's heart was full as well as the children who received their goody bags.
