On Thursday night, Elm City Montessori hosted its annual Winter Sing celebration, outdoors and in the evening. The event began with opening remarks from leaders centering the second quarter anti-bias anti-racist themes of "seeing and celebrating differences" alongside "honoring our traditions," as well as a parent sharing some of her Kwanzaa beliefs and practices.

Each classroom, as well as the family organizers and teachers, sang a song. The event was organized by the Family Teacher Organization and co-produced by parent volunteers of A Broken Umbrella Theatre. Poké Oli was present serving hot chocolate and some samples from its winter menu, as well as three food trucks, Ramen Station, Sophie Cafe, and La Chalupa.
