Presentations to prepare!
Skits to perfect!
School work
given an extra touch!
Oh, the excitement
leading up to a favorite day for the entire student body, Grandparents
Day!
The love and pride felt on campus
that day as grandparents and grandchildren shared music, food,
a tour of the campus
was palpable.
Grandparents Day began in 1981 and easily became a yearly
tradition.
Signs saying “Welcome
Grandparents,” “Grandparents are Great,” and “I love my Grandparents'' could be
found around the campus; special music programs by students of all divisions
were practiced and polished; dances were performed; food was served, classes
often had a special program prepared and some individual classes asked
grandparents to share their special memories of an historical
time being studied.
Finally classrooms were visited, and students
had a chance to show Grandpa and Grandma some of their own work and introduce
them to their teacher.
A glorious time
was had by all!
