FLORENCE, KY (FOX19) - The Christmas season has begun and Mr. and Mrs. Claus visited Florence Elementary for lunch and checked on all the good boys and girls.  The students had loads of questions for Mr. Claus from ‘where are the reindeer?’ to ‘how did they get here? 

There were lots of smiles and hugs going around in anticipation of Christmas Day excitement.
The fun didn’t stop with lunch.

Mr. and Mrs. Claus returned to school for “Breakfast with Santa”.  Many students and parents joined us for a hot breakfast of eggs, biscuits and gravy, and sausage. The line was long but each student was able to have their picture taken with Mr. and Mrs. Claus and received a pack to make an ornament.

During the Christmas season Santa represents “Hope”, a chance to fulfill their dreams while enjoying the magical moments celebrated with family and friends.
