Elementary students at North Lamar Independent School District are celebrating the conclusion of the fall semester and the upcoming Christmas holiday by experiencing one of the Christmas Classics – The Polar Express.
The Polar Express, based on a book written by Chris Van Allsburg, is a classic Christmas movie about a young boy who doubts that Santa Claus truly exists. One Christmas Eve, as the boy waits for the sound of Santa’s sleigh bells, a magical train appears outside his home and the conductor invites him aboard. What unfolds is a journey about friendship, bravery, and the spirit of Christmas.
While learning about the Christmas classic, each student enjoyed a cup of hot chocolate and received a sleigh bell from the North Pole.
