Graduates from the Charles W. Howard Santa School have descended upon malls all across America. The Michigan school teaches students about the history of Santa and personal hygiene. Director Tom Valent says, "Santa is a pure man; he's a pure spirit. You never use off-color jokes or flirt or anything like that. You have to be very careful where we touch the children, how we pick them up, how we set them on our knees. Keep your hands up on top visible. We don't want any Santas getting a bad rap." There are also classes for singing, story telling and Santa dancing.
