Last week, Tama-Grundy Publishing printed two special pages of area schoolchildren’s letters to Santa. Unfortunately, the letters from Mrs. Sell’s first graders at North Tama Elementary were inadvertently omitted from the issue – a mistake the Telegraph regrets. We are printing the letters this week in hopes that the letter-writers had a wonderful Christmas morning and are currently enjoying the time off from school with their families and friends. Happy Holidays!
