WAY TO GO ELDORADO! The return to school brought back a fun tradition EPTO started two years ago. On the first Thursday of every month their community provides a themed potluck lunch for the entire staff. The first one of the new year was International Foods. We can imagine how much their staff appreciates this tradition!
