Christmas is in full swing at MSS! Each day the Christmas spirit can be felt in the classrooms and throughout the halls. Today is one of the busiest days before Christmas with a talent show and evening concert! A Christmas joke for you:
An LED bulb invited a Christmas light bulb over for dinner. When the Christmas bulb showed up at the LED bulb’s house, he was surprised to find that she didn’t come alone.
LED bulb: “You brought friends?”
Christmas bulb: “We are Christmas lights….when one goes out we all go out.”
