Carving Pumpkins with Kindergarten

Kindergarten students at Jefferson continued our tradition of carving pumpkins with a helper. Students had guests come from home, student council members, members of the board office, as well as their teachers help them carve their pumpkins. At the end of the day students were able to take their pumpkins home. Thank you to everyone who helped make this event a success.
