Photo submitted to Times Observer On Friday, Warren Area Elementary Center (WAEC) students in Mrs. Leach’s, Mrs. McGraw’s, and Mrs. Knupp’s class hosted a Thanksgiving brunch for their friends who participate in the Building Buddies program. The program, in its second year, pairs students in the Life Skills classes with peers to foster friendships throughout the building. Students, with the help of the faculty and staff created a feast of scrambled eggs, pancakes, sausage, French Toast casseroles, cookies, and breads. The tables were festively decorated with crafts students made for the feast. Sounds of laughter and chatter could be heard at each table as the groups of buddies interacted and continued developing in their friendships. As kids were sent back to classes for the remainder of the day, farewells of “have a good weekend,” and “thanks for having lunch with me” were heard and lots of hugs were given. Above, Emily Wiles helps her friend Colton Ristau with his plate as they move through the food line. Below, Ryder Check and Lacey Myers pose together while they wait to be called into the food line. At bottom, Addison Leach, Sophie McCracken, and Alivia Hoffman pose with their plates piled with breakfast goodies.
