🎸SCHOOL OF ROCK — WHERE LEARNING ROCKS! 🎸
The Macon/Piatt Regional Office of Education #39 rocked the Decatur YMCA’s Trunk or Treat again this year! Our theme was School of Rock: Where Learning Rocks, and our staff showed up ready to rock in their best ’80s gear!
What a fantastic community turnout! It was such a joy to see hundreds of children and their families dressed in their Halloween best, enjoying a beautiful evening filled with fun, smiles, and community spirit. 🧡
A big THANK YOU to the Decatur YMCA for hosting such a wonderful event and bringing our community together. We had a blast and are already looking forward to next year!
From all of us at ROE #39, have a safe, happy, and spooktacular Halloween! 🎃👻
