Before Spring Break, Mme Suzie created another magical setting for St. Patrick's Day!  The kids in her class built Leprechaun traps to catch the sneaky guy in the act!  In the morning, their traps were destroyed and they even found his beard hair stuck in them!

Also, they couldn't find their inside shoes and discovered the Leprechaun had hung them from the ceiling in the office!  

And to top it all off, he peed in the sink and left a trail of poop on the floor!  

It was another successful St. Patrick's Day!
