Continuing a 30-year tradition, ECDS students will prepare and share a Thanksgiving meal together at each grade level (typically revolving around soup, rather than a roasted Turkey).

The themes are reverence, thankfulness and service to others. One feature of the feasts is that, whenever possible, “Big Kids, Help Little Kids”. For example, 4th Graders might help serve food at the feast attended by Kindergartners.

Happy Thanksgiving!
