Pumpkin fun was in full swing at Cahill Elementary!
The carved pumpkins were then displayed in the main office, and the entire Cahill community was invited to cast a vote for their favorite creation.
Instead of traditional carving tools, students used rubber hammers and pumpkin stencil cutters to safely bring their designs to life. To top it off, Warren roasted the pumpkin seeds—one batch with salt and another with cinnamon—so students could enjoy a tasty fall treat.
We hope everyone has a very Happy Halloween!
