LAWRENCEVILLE — It was a festive morning inside the front hallway of the Maxwell High School of Technology on Friday.

Students and teachers alike wore Santa hats, sang Christmas carols — some with custom lyrics — as they organized and filled trash bags with gifts destined for the Quinn House. For the last five weeks, students and teachers have shopped for and purchased gifts for children who may not otherwise receive Christmas gifts or a visit from Santa.  Click here to read entire story: Christmas for the Quinn House
