Swift Creek Middle School

All aboard the Polar Express!🚂 Swift Creek Middle held a Polar Express Winter event, which treated the students to a holiday meal lovingly created by JCPS School Nutrition Services. The holiday meal included chicken pastry, carrot souffle, green beans, corn muffins, and more! Each student received a Polar Express Golden Ticket to visit the Hot Chocolate Station, and a silver jingle bell with Believe printed on it, as a reminder to believe in the magic of the holiday season.✨ #GreatThingsAreHappeningInJCPS
