Crossroads High School

Crossroads was invaded this week by Dash and Sparkle… our feral, overly dramatic elves who were kicked out of the North Pole by Santa and sent to Crossroads for “reform” … kept our staff BUSY this week.

They were supposed to stay quietly in the front office.
They did NOT.
There were questionable Elf parties, unapproved Christmas guests (Rudolph included), and dramatic escapes every time they were caught.
Staff members were sent on full-scale elf hunts as these two were discovered hiding under tables, behind fire extinguishers, and inside Christmas decorations.
They were Wild!

We even offered a reward (Gifts) for anyone who found them… and occasionally staff members took them on little “adventures” before finally returning them to Mrs. Leary. 😂

DAEP is absolutely where they belonged on the Naughty List...but thanks to our kind-hearted, patient, and good-humored staff, Dash and Sparkle were repeatedly rescued, returned, and kept (mostly) out of trouble.

After surviving this level of elf nonsense, our staff has more than earned this two-week break.
Rest. Relax. Recover.
And enjoy the peace… because Santa is coming to get these two. 😌

The Graduates!
