Holiday Fever

By Emmasae Hallen

"I cant wait for the holidays!" said a 5th grader from GBS. The students at GBS are very excited because in less than a week Christmas vacation will start. Before the break there will be a lot of events happening in the school. One thing that is happening is the holiday concert. The concert is on December 16th and will be held in the gym. "The students will do very well and they have worked so hard for the time we have had to practice." said Ms. Moncrief. "I cant wait!"

Another event is the holiday door decorating contest. Each class has to decorate their door in a holiday theme. It can be about any holiday in December. Its a contest between each grade. There will be a winner and they will get a prize that has not been decided yet. "It sets a nice festive tone for our school," Ms. Wasserloos said while walking to the office. On December 16th the doors will be judged by a group of kids in Rachel's Challenge. (That's a group of kids trying to make our school a better place.) “The doors will look great!” Jt Clough said.

The last thing that is happening is on the last day of school before vacation. We will have about 2 hours of advisory to have stuff like parties and different fun activities. Some advisory's are having secret santas or yankee swaps, and others are just hanging out and having fun. The activities, the parties and so much fun, its like its already vacation.
