Tracy Laffey chaired an amazing Halloween Party alongside AnnaLisa Ciccotto. The kids had a blast and this party never disappoints! Our annual Christmas Fair was held November 22-24 and was “Elf” themed. Again, the children had a wonderful time. It is always so amazing to watch their faces light up when they walk into the gym. Peter Vento chaired this event and his efforts and heart truly showed through the smiles of our children. Thank you to Tracy and Peter for taking on these big events for our school.
