Thank you for your help showing them how much they are appreciated!

Guest Speakers
We are so excited to have guest speakers from the Harrison House join us in two weeks! They have an amazing activity where the students will learn how towns were first developed. We will also have another guest speaker sharing electrical safety and how power travels through our town. This is a beautiful tie in with our standards focusing on circuits and electricity.
