Excitement was in the air as students and teachers lined up recently for an inside look at the new school under construction at Spaulding Youth Center. Jeff Downing, President of Conneston Construction (CCI), led the students to the ‘Town Hall’ area of the school where after reading ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas’, an unexpected guest- Santa Claus – arrived carrying a sack of ‘Our New School is Cool’ shirts for the students. 5th Graders from the Plymouth Elementary School joined Santa and added their musical talents and big hearts to the event bringing Holiday joy to the students at Spaulding. “This was wonderful fun for everyone involved and a great bridge between the two groups of kids. We are all kids at heart at Christmas!” commented Downing.
