☝️Number 1 and most important, we are going to do our best to "Embrace The Chaos" of the season. Did you know that this year both the first night of Hanukkah and Christmas Day are on the same day?

Below are a couple of "clips" I took from an article I was reading on the web. Seems roughly every 15 years Hanukkah and Christmas/Christmas Eve line up.
Using online calendars chronicling the historical dates of Jewish holidays, I compiled more than 100 years of Hanukkah data. Since 1900, the first night of Hanukkah has fallen on Christmas Eve three times (with 2016 being the fourth). Hanukkah has started on Christmas Day four times in the same period.
With eight total occurrences in 117 years, Hanukkah starts on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day roughly once every 15 years. Not so rare!

✌️Now a look at What we have going on at Morrison this week:
🔷️Monday - Holiday Hat and/or Hair Day
🔷️Tuesday - Holiday Sweater Day
🔷️Wednesday - Holiday Movie Day
📣World Language Wednesday - A student will do the announcements both in English and their native language.
🔷️Thursday - Sparkle Day and/or Patriots Gear
⏰️1/2 Day of school. Dismissal at 12:10
🔷️Friday - Pajama Day
🎶Holiday Sing A Long 9:00am (This is a school only event. However I did have a parent mention that they'd love to see it and suggested that we "broadcast" it to families. I'll be working on a way to do this and hopefully send out a link where you can watch). FYI - for the Sing A Long we all meet up in the cafeteria, each grade level leads the school in "their" song.

Here's wishing you and your family a Happy Holiday Season!
