Coolidge staff and students had fun celebrating Halloween with a car parade. The staff dressed up in their favorite superhero costumes and passed out bags of free books and other classroom materials needed for remote learning. We loved seeing our students even if it was from a distance!
Thank you to all of our students, families, and Oak Glen staff for an amazing Halloween Parade and materials pickup! #OakGlenGrizzlies
