Spreading Some Christmas Cheer

I already knew K&R were AH-MAZING
BUT today really proved it!!!
BYH sponsored a Christmas Themed Door Decorating Contest
at their Elementary Alma Mater!!!
It was SPECTACULAR to say the least!!!
Ed Franz Elementary
doors were dripping in Christmas Cheer!!!
The contest was announced last week and the rules were simple....
1- had to be themed after the teacher's favorite holiday song
2- must be at least 50% made
3- sparkle

EASY right....
well here are the doors
I'll tell you the grade and song and then at the end
