Gratitude across generations: CCHS serves seniors Thanksgiving lunch
November 28, 2024
The Concord-Carlisle High School cafeteria had the air and aroma of a family gathering as student government representatives cooked up a Thanksgiving lunch for their elder neighbors. Volunteers presented turkey, traditional sides, and humorous cards to the more than 125 seniors who gathered to give thanks last weekend.

Seniors arrived to festively decorated tables.“Why did the cranberries turn red? They saw the turkey dressing!”
Time to give thanks!
