Enjoy these scenes from the end of October of our happily engaged Upper Elementary community!  A beautiful ofrenda and gorgeous kites inspired by a Maya festival filled our classroom with love and color.

We are all spreading love and friendship through these magical moments in our Upper Elementary classroom.
