Swan’s Island Gingerbread Challenge [PHOTOS]
We do a pretty good job of highlighting things that are occurring at Ellsworth Elementary-Middle School and the mainland schools of AOS 91, but we need to do better highlighting the outer Island schools. That's why I was so pleased when Principal Crystal DaGraca from Swan's Island asked me to be one of the judges of their Gingerbread Remote Learning Challenge!
The goal was to have fun, and make this a family activity. They were to use any supplies provided in the kit or items they had at home AND drink hot cocoa while decorating for the most enjoyable experience.
Here are the photos that were submitted. Well done all!
