When Josh and Nick were in elementary, they had all kinds of holiday celebrations. In December they did a combination hanakah/christmas/kwanza thing, then did the parade around the school with them wearing costumes, etc.
Then when Zack got to be about 3rd grade, they just stopped. Wouldn't even let the kids exchange valentines.
I thought this was ridiculous, but okay, fine.
We got a new school board, and I think they have a little more common sense, and things are going to go back to the way they were.
I mean, come on!!! It's fun for the kids, people. That's what it's all about. |
