Generations & Celebrations – Charter School coordinates holiday bash at 630 Salem St.

Mystic Valley Elder Services (MVES) held many holiday events and activities in partnership with the Malden Housing Authority, but one celebration involved some special guests. Mystic Valley Regional Charter School (MVRCS) made its annual holiday visit to 630 Salem St. in Malden. Students from MVRCS’ lower and upper schools transformed the festive Common Room at 630 Salem, making space for the young visitors to share music, food and fun.

The evening got underway with an elaborate holiday banquet presented by the school. Students even helped to serve the meal. The school band, guided by Music Director Robert Taylor, led a program of holiday songs. Residents joined in and sang along to their favorites. The school also provided lottery-style giveaways, offering numerous scratch tickets, poinsettia bouquets and other prizes. Residents had a wonderful time and it put everyone in a joyous mood for the holidays.

MVES would like to thank the students, staff and parents for their efforts. MVES would also like to thank the Malden Housing Authority for making this beloved tradition part of the holiday festivities at 630 Salem St.
