CHARLOTTE — First-grade students at St. Ann School celebrated Mardi Gras by making shoe box floats and parading around the school.
A reading contest was conducted and the winners were crowned king and queen of Mardi Gras. Lyla Hoover, Mardi Gras queen, and Sebastian Ortiz, Mardi Gras king, stood on a float and led the parade through the halls of the school.
