December Student Services Newsletter
We would like to invite everyone to come join us at the Calhoun Middle/High School on December 20th from 4pm-6pm in the commons area for some Christmas magic. Bring your little or big ones to come see Santa and tell him what they would like this year for Christmas. Make sure to wear your comfiest pajamas and bring an empty belly so that you can thoroughly enjoy some pancakes, crepes and hot chocolate. Enjoy some live music, while decorating an ornament for your tree.
We will also be handing out books, basic needs supplies and have vendors set up as well. We look forward to seeing everyone with smiling faces and spreading Christmas cheer.
