Merry Christmas! We hope you`re spending the day surrounded by loved ones, cheer, and, of course, plenty of cookies.
This photo was taken in Mary Grace O`Shea`s classroom @chicagojesuitacademy last year before holiday break. Students gathered together for a Christmas party, including cooking decorating, carol karaoke, and togetherness before winter break. We love seeing food bring people together at the holidays and all year round!

You see a gingerbread house, we see a geometry lesson! Last year, Pilot Light teacher Ms. Amy Jacobs` 5th graders studied the best geometric shapes to build strong gingerbread houses together before the holidays. Ms. Amy said of her students: "as always, their creativity was beyond anything I could have suggested." Maybe some of these creative young learners will grow up to be architects or contractors, using this lesson as the foundation for their passion for creativity and construction.
