Lucy Wortham James Elementary

🚂✨ All Aboard the Polar Express! ✨🚂

Today, our school was filled with magic, joy, and a whole lot of holiday cheer as we celebrated Polar Express Day! Students arrived in cozy pajamas, enjoyed special treats, and took part in festive activities inspired by the beloved story. From hot chocolate smiles to laughter echoing through the halls, it was a day full of memories we’ll treasure.

A huge thank you to the volunteers and community partners for bringing this magical experience to life! We truly believe—just like the Polar Express reminds us—to always hold on to the magic of the season! 🎄❄️

Thank you to our community partner, Bouse Mercantile, for holding a PB & J Drive for our children. They also collected enough blankets so each child could receive one in their buddy bag. Additionally, a big shout out to our regional FFA and 4H for supporting these efforts as well. Again, thank you! Happy Holidays!!

Shout out to our community partner, The Beauty Mark, for donating goodies for the holiday season. We thank and appreciate you very much!
