🎉🚂 *All aboard the DD4 Polar Express!* 🚂🎉
Harleyville Elementary's Literacy Night on Thursday, December 19th, was a *magical* evening! Students, teachers, and families all came decked out in their cozy pajamas to celebrate the Polar Express theme. From fun family activities to meeting Santa Claus and taking rides on the DD4 Polar Express, the night was filled with joy and laughter.
Everyone had such an amazing time that we lost track of time and went *over schedule*! 😄 Huge kudos to Principal Wolfgang and his incredible staff for organizing such a fantastic event. Thank you to all who joined us for a night to remember! ❤️📚
