The students at Tyler Elementary School were full of smiles when they realized that they wouldn’t actually be doing math tutoring for our final program of the fall semester, but having a holiday celebration instead. Students and volunteers alike spent their last session of 2014 making Thank You/Holiday cards for one another, decorating gift bags, going head to head in a few serious games of Uno and Mancala, eating tons on sugary snacks, and receiving gifts to show our appreciation for all of their hard work and dedication and as an incentive for our students to keep up a job well done. This is definitely my favorite time of year!
