Editor’s Note: In the spirit of the holidays, the editor has decided to republish some old letters to Santa written by local children attending Bryan County Schools.This is a tradition that the editor was unaware of, but greatly wishes to continue during her tenure as BCN editor. Shout out to the past editor Jeff Whitten for this lovely idea! The present editor would like to wish everyone reading this a Merry Christmas!
Dear Santa, I’ve always wanted to say you are the nicest person I know. I’ve always been trying to wish for a good Christmas. I know some people are bad, but I want people to have a chance to get at least one present. It’s really crazy that you can deliver presents all over the world in one night.
Santa make sure to have a good Christmas.

Love, Ian Dear Santa, I was wondering if I was good or bad. If I’m good then can I have one or two random Lego sets. But if I’m bad can you give it to my sister Emily or my friend Ian or Justin. And by the way I want you to give my little sister Sophia a Barbie doll wearing a pink dress and tell her to stop touching my Lego toy.

I also want an apple watch for Christmas. I deserve this because, I’ve been doing great with chores, and I’ve been having very good behavior.

Love, Zoe Dear Santa I am sorry for not believing in you from time to time but it is just strange how you can stop at over over 7 billion houses. Although I know you are magic it’s still odd. Also I don’t care about the presents under the tree, because that isn’t important. The main thing I want is for Harley, my friend, to find her elf named Bell. Also Bell was a prankster.
