O
n November 20, students and parents came together to continue the School’s long-standing partnership with Allies for Every Child, teaming up to host their annual Thanksgiving dinner. This year’s volunteers donated and prepared the ingredients to make a full turkey dinner for over 300 people on site at AEC. Parents and volunteers prepared and cooked, while students served, decorated, and entertained AEC families with an arts and crafts fair. A joyous celebration of the holiday spirit, the day was a great example of the bond we share with all generations of our Windward community.
