On Friday, we had our first Halloween field day! It was a student created, designed, developed, and led event! We are so proud of our student leaders who came up with this and executed it. We had so much fun playing games, watching movies, drawing with chalk, and spending time together! 🎃💛
Happy Halloween from your Schaefer team! 🎃👻
