Christmas secrets and Christmas surprises are alive and well with Christmas coming upon us. Children are dreaming of Santa Claus and surprises that will be left under the tree. Everyone would like to see Santa and lucky Stafford students got to do just that!

Friday of last week Santa and Mrs. Claus visited Stafford Elementary just in time to greet the students and visit their Christmas parties. Santa even brought one of his cutest elves along to help the students sit on his lap, get their pictures taken and tell him their Christmas wishes.

Peri Patterson (third grade teacher) said, “We are playing all kinds of games today like, ‘Sharing Chairs’. This is where the music plays and when it stops everyone has to share a chair with someone, if they don’t have someone sitting in their chair with them, they are out. We also are so lucky to have Santa Claus visit us today and bring his Christmas Cheer.”

Another great day at Stafford Elementary! Merry Christmas!
