Croton-Harmon District Employees Spread Holiday Cheer

From Croton-Harmon School District: Croton-Harmon faculty and staff members played Santa Claus for 22 Carrie E. Tompkins Elementary School families this holiday season.

“Each year, CET sponsors families in need in our community by providing the children of the families identified in our school with [holiday] gifts,” said school counselor Vilma Torres-Pagán. “The district office, buildings and grounds department and transportation department assisted us.”

The school’s Holiday Tree has become an annual tradition embraced by the school’s faculty and district employees. Families provide the school with wish lists from their children and the staffers in turn wrap the gifts in time for the holidays.
