Halifax Area School District

All week, we prepared for our 🐠Under the Sea🐠 Literacy Night at the elementary school, and it truly paid off! A huge thank you to Mrs. Crook, Mrs. Daub, Mrs. Preun, Mr. Hoover, Mrs. Hoover, Mrs. P. Miller, and Mrs. Yeager for staying after school and volunteering your time to decorate and make the building look so special for our students. We welcomed over 300 attendees, and students enjoyed a pizza dinner, a variety of reading stations, crafts, guessing games, tropical music, the PTO Book Fair, and, most importantly, lots of fun with reading!
