Students at Washington Elementary School in Bloomington share what they're thankful for this year, during a schoolwide Thanksgiving meal on Thursday, Nov. 17, 2022.

Part of what makes a family a family are its traditions — including around the holidays. Those things you do year after year.

And sometimes a family isn't technically a family, but boy, it sure feels like it.

WGLT's Ryan Denham brings us this story from District 87's Washington Elementary School in Bloomington, which has a Thanksgiving tradition all its own. Listen to the story by clicking Play above.

On the menu for this year's Thanksgiving lunch at Washington were turkey breast, corn, mashed potatoes, gravy, fresh fruit, and carrots.
