They all did a fantastic job! We also celebrated the tree lighting, which was presented by our student body president, Jack Zanotti. The tree lighting is a tradition that is celebrated every year at Phelps, which demonstrates how everyone's light helps create our community, and plays an important part here at our school. Our very own Doc G did is annual playing on his accordion which was such a treat. 

We also had very special guests from the North Pole! Santa Claus (Jack Hasler) and his Elf helper ( Antonio Monti) made a visit and handed out an array of gifts to different students and faculty. Some of the gifts definitely caused some laughter! The Holiday Program is something that everyone looks forward to every year, and is a great way to end the school week, and start the holiday festivities!

On behalf on The Phelps School, we wish everyone a safe and happy holiday, and a great new year!
