Books Come alive
We had 32 students participate in our first Books Come Alive event. Students got to experience the world of Harry Potter like never before. They attended Hogwarts classes, were sorted into their houses, played Quidditch, competed in a Horcrux hunt, and battled in HP trivia. It was a great experience for all! We are already looking forward to next year when we bring the Percy Jackson series to life! Take a moment and watch a video recap of this year's event.
Our heartfelt thanks
