It's a monster party!! The High School Home Economics class partnered with Mrs. Roney's preschool class to create monsters. The preschool students drew pictures of their monster ideas, and then the HS students turned the monsters into toys. The finished monsters were presented back to the preschool students today. A great time was had by all!
