Chinese New Year Celebrated at Edgewood School

Edgewood students and faculty celebrated Chinese New Year on February 23 with a parade of the dragon, Chinese New Year symbols, noisemakers and loud chants of Gung Hay Fat Choy, which means “have a prosperous New Year.” This is the year of the tiger and children paraded carrying little stuffed animals representing all of the characters, but the tiger had a special place.

Ms. O'Farrell's third grade class and all of the first grade classes marched while the rest of the school lined the halls to watch and join the chant.
