Clifford, Santa and puppies celebrate Christmas with Claysville students

CLAYSVILLE – Santa Claus, two beagle puppies and Clifford the Big Red Dog were among the recent visitors to Alison Beck’s life skills/multiple disabilities classroom at Claysville Elementary School.
Her students, who range in age from 8 to 11, knew they were having a party and would get to watch “The Polar Express.”
However, they didn’t know the extent of the party.
They started clapping when they saw Santa strolling down the sidewalk by their school.
And suddenly, he appeared in their classroom – with gifts for all of them.
“I have some little presents this morning,” Santa said. “The elves packed them for me.”
