Giving Thanks

Thanksgiving at Seabury is always celebrated by the students with a "Charlie Brown-style" feast. Each class prepares some small snack or treat that is a riff on traditional Thanksgiving meal items, and we all come together at the end of the day to share our bounty. Turkey is not usually on our menu, but there is always a veggie platter in the shape of a turkey!
Everybody gets in on the chopping!

We then assemble out trays tp show off all the delicious color.
We form a big circle and everyone says what they are thankful for. Occasionally we hear funny things like "squirrels," and "the internet," but for the most part, it's the heartfelt things that matter most that students share. This year, family, friends, teachers, and "Seabury" came up over and over. There is a lot to be thankful for here, that is for sure!
Gobble Gobble!
