Jackson Academy had a lot of guests from the North Pole on campus last week! Welcoming students and families to school in morning carpool Tuesday through Friday were Mr. and Mrs. Claus and a troupe of reindeer, elves, Christmas trees, gifts wrapped and ready, and a few snowmen who braved the warm Mississippi weather. Elsa and Anna even came from Arendelle. Smiles lit the faces of everyone in carpool line – students, parents, and greeters alike. It was truly a magical way to launch the holiday season at JA!
