Posted

In a heartwarming display of holiday spirit, the Reagan County Middle School Student Council orchestrated a delightful surprise for the cherished residents of the Reagan County Care Center on Tuesday, December 18th, 2023.

Students hand-delivered the curated Christmas gift baskets to each resident, brimming with items designed to bring comfort and joy.

The highlight of the baskets was a cozy fleece throw, embroidered with the name of its recipient—a gesture that undoubtedly warmed hearts in more ways than one.

Accompanying this snug addition were essentials for self-care, including lotion, deodorant, shampoo, and conditioner, ensuring that the residents felt pampered and cared for during the holiday season.

The Student Council also included anti-slip fuzzy socks, ensuring both safety and snugness for the recipients as they prepare for the colder days ahead.

Finally, to add a personal touch, the students crafted handmade Christmas cards, expressing their warm wishes and spreading contagious smiles throughout the care center.

Principal Roberts expressed immense pride in the Student Council's initiative, highlighting the students' dedication to making a meaningful difference in the lives of their community.

"Witnessing our students come together to spread joy and kindness embodies the true spirit of the season," Roberts said. "Their empathy and efforts exemplify the values we strive to instill at RCMS," 

The radiant expressions on the faces of the residents upon receiving these gifts spoke volumes, reflecting their sheer delight and gratitude. Not for the basket itself, but for the care, effort and sense of community the baskets represent.
