Happy Birthday Kansas!
Paola Middle School students in Ms. Yerkes class have spent the month of January working hard on creating their very own Kansas magazine to commemorate their home state since Kansas became an official state on January 29, 1861. Students researched the very first Kansas Day celebration, which by the way happened right here in Paola back in 1877! They also researched some famous Kansans and some different restaurants in Kansas. The students who participated in this Kansas magazine project were: Rosie Blackie, Emma Johnson, Cruz Guzman, Lila Blackie, Declan Bean, and Massimo DiMartino. They used the Canva program. Good job, students!
