St. Patrick’s Day Celebration at Newell School!
On March 17, Newell School District is embracing Irish tradition with a hearty Irish Lamb Stew for lunch! Lamb has long been a staple in Irish cuisine, making it the perfect dish to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.
The lamb is being provided by Kitzan Sheep & JHK Sheep, Dwight & Gwendolyn Kitzan and Joshua & Heather Kitzan.
A huge thank you to Mrs. Brunner, who has been planning this fun meal, along Gwen Kitzan, who will be in the kitchen cooking up this traditional dish.
Don’t forget to wear your green.
