Crafts, games, gift exchanges, cookie decorating, pajama and pizza parties, breakfast, and poem creation were all activities planned by parents and teachers to prepare for the holiday excitement.
Here is a poem written by Mrs. Marsh's second grade class:
Glitzen
There once was a reindeer named Glitzen,
Who had a crush on Blitzen.
He was so cute,
And never a brute,
She always wanted to kiss him.

Students of Park View have been reading incredible amounts in order to participate in the "It Pays to Read Activity". It was loud! It was exciting! It was worth reading! Two students who read the required amount of minutes were chosen from each class to assemble an all pro team to win prizes and money. Members of the High School Basketball team and faculty members were among the candidates chosen to shoot baskets for money.
The songs Jingle Bells, Rudolph, Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer, the Grinch, and the Twelve Days of Christmas were heard ringing through the halls of Park View during the month of December as students practiced singing to prepare for the annual Singing Around the Tree. Scores of parents came to veiw the event. Santa even paid a visit to our school to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. Our Music Specialist, Mrs. Anderson, taught each grade a song to share using insturments which enhanced the music and allowed the students to feel the music on a higher level.
The Park View Choir and Orchestra performed beautiful Music to help bring the Christmas Spirit into the hearts of the students. Thanks to all students who come before school and stay after school to practice. Thanks to the directors, Mrs. Diana and Jami Losee for the talents they share and their dedicated service to our students. Enjoy these pictures of the performances.
The PTA organized a wonderful event for the students of our school, Christmas Books and Candy Canes. Parents, elves and even Mrs. Claus were asked to come and share their favorite Christmas Book; each student received a Candy Cane to munch on while they listened to the stories. This was a fun way to get into the Christmas spirit. Thanks to all those who helped organize this special occasion for the students.
