Our teachers came together in teams to make gingerbread displays again this year. The rules were simple, your entry could not already be put together and you had one hour to do it all. The creations were displayed in the school and then given away to students to take home and decorate their homes with. This is a fun tradition of working together, synergizing, and having fun. ENJOY THE PICTURES!
