There were also craft activities including face painting and a contest for students to create hats like the one from the Cat in the Hat.

The event included the annual Book Fair in honor of Read Across America. And, families could partake of the baked potato dinner complete with cookies and milk for the price of $1.00 or a can of food to support Midway families. The staff also set up a clothing shop - all donated items - for families to choose from.

Principal Ben Gauyan wore a Cat in the Hat costume and cruised the building reading Dr. Seuss stories to students and their families. At the end of the event, each student received a special personalized certificate for participating in the Dr. Seuss celebration.
