“The santa claus school, in its 83rd year established, continues to operate a school that teaches individuals the basics of being santa: things like appropriate santa make-up and clothing, the principles of sleigh flight, the care and feeding of reindeer, and how to properly sing a christmas carol. The santa claus school is the oldest santa school in the world and students have come from nearly every state and from countries all over the world, including australia, england, switzerland, norway and greenland. The class is limited to 115 students each year, split into new and returning students.”
