Last Friday, MNCS Elementary students celebrated all things winter! There was sledding in the morning and then a Winter Dance Party in the afternoon! Students had a great time celebrating the winter season dancing to music, playing glow in the dark bowling, a ping pong ball game, balloon toss, making paper snowflakes, winning prizes, and eating some delicious festive treats! What a fun way to spend an Experience Friday!

Thank you to all our helpers and everyone did such a great job- we bet these candy houses tasted as good as they looked!
