Happy Easter from Mrs. Hart's second-grade class. These students enjoyed an egg hunt earlier this week!






Bunnies and eggs originated as symbols of spring and rebirth. Over the centuries, these ancient symbols became associated with the holiday of Easter, the principal festival of the Christian church, which celebrates the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Happy Easter!
