โ๏ธ๐ A Magical Attendance Surprise at Doddridge County Elementary! ๐โ๏ธ
After a couple of cold and snowy days with school canceled due to weather, Elsa visited Doddridge County Elementary School on December 17, 2025, as a special attendance incentive. Students who attended school that day were excited to be greeted by Elsa as they walked into the building.
Even though we were coming off several snow days and heading into a long break, being present at school remains important. Elsa helped remind our students to be ready to learn while also getting excited for the upcoming break!
Thank you to our Holistic Child Department, Communities In Schools staff, and Elsa for making this fun and memorable experience possible! โ๏ธโจ
