Mrs. Hageman's preschool students went on a gingerbread scavenger hunt last week. While they were in the library, a gingerbread snuck into their classroom and left them a note. They followed the clues around the school (multi, nurse's office and elementary office) with the last clue leading back to their classroom where he left them their own gingerbread cookies to decorate and eat!!! #TVPride
