Windermere Elementary celebrates Grandparents Day

With a Thanksgiving theme, the students of Windermere Elementary welcomed their grandparents to school Friday morning for breakfast, choral performances, awards and class visits. A kindergarten class and the school's chorus sang tunes of the season while grandparents consumed bagels, bananas, orange juice and coffee. Then in an informal awards ceremony, various grandparents were recognized: oldest grandparent (91); youngest grandparent (46); new grandchild most recently (10 days ago); most grandchildren (15); most grandchildren at Windermere Elementary (four); and grandparents who traveled farthest (Costa Rica, Russia and Syria). Grandparents were then dismissed by grade levels to visit their grandchildren in their classes.
