Both Sanborn Central and Woonsocket Schools had a door decorating contest this year. Sanborn Central had people who attended their Christmas concert vote for their favorite door, and this year’s winner was the third-grade classroom door belonging to Mrs. Ashly Uecker and her students. Uecker and her class will receive donuts from the Sanborn Central High School Student Council.

The door decorating contest in Woonsocket was a little more cutthroat as it was a contest orchestrated by the administration as a competition between teachers for prizes going to the top three in the junior high/high school end of the school and the top three in the elementary end of the school. Winners were announced at an assembly on Monday, Dec. 19. In the elementary area, first place went to Mrs. Jackson; second place went to Mrs. Potrament and third place was a tie between Mrs. Jensen and Mrs. Deinert/Mrs. Bruce, who teamed up to decorate because their doors are next to each other.

In the junior high/high school part of the school, first place went to Mrs. King and Mr. Olsen who worked together because their doors are connected; second place went to Mrs. Kohlmeyer and Mrs. Henriksen, who also worked together because they have connecting doorways; and third place went to Mr. and Mrs. Rodriguez who also have doors next to each other. It was a great way to promote teamwork and fun for the holiday season.
