One of the biggest questions there is, still isn’t fully answered. When does the Christmas season begin?

After Halloween or After Thanksgiving? Many students at Snow College have this ongoing debate on which is the right time.

Snow College student Sadie Cox says that after Halloween on November 1 is the start of the Christmas season. “Christmas is a season not just a holiday like Thanksgiving, we should be getting in the Christmas spirit as soon as we can”.

Another student, Carter Young also said “Christmas starts after Halloween, but really gets amped up after Thanksgiving and that’s when I start to watch Christmas movies and listen to Christmas music”.

The Christmas season is one of the best times of the year and many students love Christmas time.
