OSHKOSH, WI (WTAQ) – Thanksgiving came early for one local school.
Franklin Elementary in Oshkosh held a holiday gathering during its lunch hour Thursday.
Special Education Teacher Stevie Aguilar organized the event.
She says the meal was prepared by the district’s food services, with various people helping out on the decorations.
“We got donations for a lot of the supplies that we needed. It took a lot of phone calls and a lot of leg work.”
Aguilar notes this wasn’t the first time students had the chance to celebrate.
“We had a small scale last year, and the kids absolutely loved it. They’ve been asking ever since if we could repeat the process and if we could do it for the whole school.”
Aguilar says they hope to make Thursday’s event an annual tradition.
