TRURO — Santa Claus (though some said it was Mike Tarvers) stopped by the Community Center on Dec. 12 to encourage singing during lunch. So, 30 students from Truro Central School piped up, accompanied on the guitar by teacher Joshua Paul. They sang to 36 people who were there for the council on aging’s annual holiday lunch, made by Julie and Frank Grande, owners of the Truro Box Lunch, who also provided hot chocolate and cookies for the carolers.

Bryan Carmma Millan and Robert Phillips hit the high notes as their classmates sing along, backed by 4th-grade special interventionist Joshua Paul on guitar.
