Bring Your Legislator to School Day

I am so proud of the students from each grade who did research and wrote interview questions for today’s student  lead press conference!  This innovative learning experience was a huge success today; students holding a press conference with our Arkansas Government elected officials!  The students loved the opportunity to get to learn more about our politicians, etc.  and be able to share this day with the students, staff, and community!
