Central Elementary School second graders learned about the Chinese New Year recently. The Year of the Snake began on January 29. Students made hats, lanterns, snakes, and red envelopes - all symbols of the Chinese New Year. One student shared her New Year's family traditions and gave her classmates red envelopes with two-dollar bills inside. The two-dollar bill symbolizes prosperity.
