The Christmas spirit was alive at the Leigh High School through the FCCLA chapter as they celebrated their annual Christmas event.  The annual FCCLA Family Christmas was held on Sunday, December 8th. 

The FCCLA chapter had a great turnout from their members and their families. Every family was expected to bring a different dish for the pot-luck meal. 

The Leigh-Clarkson FCCLA advisor, Megan Hillen said, “Family Christmas is always a great opportunity for our FCCLA family to celebrate the holiday. We would like to thank all the families that took time to attend this event and share in the holiday spirit!” 

The members and their families had the opportunity to make crafts as well. The officer team and Mrs. Hillen decided to have crafts that they could also eat. They took pretzel rods and decorated them with almond bark, sprinkles, chocolate chips, and many other toppings. 

Vice President, Taylor Larson said, “Family Christmas was a great time to spend time with friends and family. I always look forward to getting to be with my family and my FCCLA family.”
