On October 28, Jefferson Elementary was buzzing with excitement as families gathered for the school's annual Trunk or Treat celebration. 14 festively decorated cars filled the parking lot, each one overflowing with donated candy ready to delight eager trick-or-treaters.

Adding to the thrill, the Utica Fire Department made a special appearance, complete with a gleaming fire truck that captivated the crowd, especially the kids.

More than 400 students and family members joined in on the fun. From witches to superheroes, everyone dressed up in creative Halloween costumes that added to the lively atmosphere.

The event was a tremendous success, uniting the Jefferson community for a night filled with joy, treats and lasting memories. Once again, Trunk or Treat proved to be a highlight of the season that many families will look forward to next year.
