Seneca Valley Intermediate High School students brought Irish spirit and cheer into their hallways as they celebrated St. Patrick’s Day Monday, March 17.
Two junior students, Abby Stay and Anna Molyneaux, showed off their skills to their classmates, teaching them how to perform a traditional Irish dance.
Students celebrated in other ways as well. During the day, they crafted their own lucky shamrocks, writing down what makes them feel fortunate. They also created special shamrocks for their teachers and shared why they are lucky to have them.
The district said the festivities were a heartwarming way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, highlighting culture, community and kindness.
