MONTE TURNER | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 1 year, 8 months AGO
Sunday afternoon in the Alberton School cafeteria, families were having a wonderful time making and decorating gram cracker houses while enjoying warm beverages and snacks. Josie Hayes-Johnson, who is a mental health specialist for the school and involved with PEAK (Promoting Excellence in Alberton-area Kids) and PTSA (Parent Teacher Student Association) said they added a movie this year, "The Nightmare Before Christmas" for those kids who finished early or ate their construction material (jellybeans, candy canes, frosting, and sprinkles) rather than build.
