Saint Nicholas—and his mischievous sidekick Ruprecht—visited students in preschool through third grade on Tuesday, delivering treats of mandarin oranges and chocolate coins wrapped in golden foil. They also read from the Golden Book, detailing each child's success, strengths and strivings.

St. Nicholas was very touched when a first grade boy gave him a drawing he'd made just as St. Nicholas was leaving the room.
