The Harvest Party is an annual event that encourages the school’s K-6 students to wear costumes, pig out on goodies and celebrate the harvest season. The party is planned by the students’ parents and, according to second and third grade teacher Katrina Eisenbarth, the Harvest Party was a hit with the students.
“The students loved the different situations they had planned,” Eisenbarth said. “The teachers all really appreciate the parents putting in the extra planning into a party for the kids.”
