What’s not to love about climbing onto a fire truck and seeing your principal dressed up as Frosty the Snowman?
Hundreds of Discovery Elementary School students and their families filled the traveling reindeer fire truck to capacity with toys Dec. 16.
A steady stream of children poured out of the school onto the back playground for more than three hours on the last day before winter break, as they handed off toys for fellow youths they don’t know.
