Thanksgiving Feast
2019-11-26
Each year, as a celebration of the Pillar of Gratitude, the Student Council coordinates a feast of Thanksgiving for the entire school community, past and present, to share. Every class and division has a unique role to play in creating a feeling of giving and thanks at this special event.
