Between birthdays, holidays, and students’ many accomplishments, there are opportunities for school celebrations all year round. With 20+ students in a class, that can add up to a lot of cupcakes!
Finding fun and healthy ways to help kids feel special, celebrate their successes, and build community is a current focus for many school administrators, teachers, and parents.
With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, the Whatcom Farm to School Support Team would like to share a few resources to help you celebrate at school with healthy food and innovative ideas for celebrating without food.
