Normally Santa needs reindeer and a sleigh to get around, but this time, he arrived in an even more impressive style by showing up in a helicopter at Duson Elementary.

Santa then made his way inside the school to greet each student.

He's been flying to Duson for more than 40 years.

Connie Price, principal of Duson Elementary, said, "It has been such a wonderful tradition, and it's been going on for so long. And, I think it's so popular because it's open to the public as well. So, it's not just a school event. It's for the entire Town of Duson."
