Thank you to all our students and staff who dressed down in red & green today for a $1.00 donation to Connecticut Children’s Medical Center. The school raised $440 to hopefully make the season a little brighter for children who cannot be at home with their family for Christmas. Here are a few pictures of our students looking merry and bright today:
