Dickens of a Christmas!

For “Dickens of a Christmas” this year, Ms. Deb Ley from First Student Transportation and Mrs. Becky Klezek, our transportation coordinator, were given12 trees from Fleming’s Christmas Tree Farm in Indiana. They asked each grade level (K-5) from Jackson Elementary and Cambria Elementary Schools to create a theme and decorate one tree. Everyone who visited the “Dickens of a Christmas” event had the opportunity to pick their favorite tree for a $1.00 donation. The second grade from Cambria Elementary School received the most votes. They made a Santa themed tree as seen in the picture. They will be having a pizza party to celebrate. This event raised $424.83 and all proceeds will go towards the Ebensburg Regional Inclusive Playground. Ms. Ley and Mrs. Klezek will be purchasing the pizza for the children. A special thank you to them, Fleming’s Christmas Tree Farm, and to everyone who participated! Great job!
