The Elementary had an awesome day with wonderful presenters, from Art to Storytelling. We would like to thank Rosie Cutrer for her storytelling songs and stories, Luke Bryan for his Team Building, Mrs. Palmquist (our new Art Teacher) for her Art lessons, Greenbush for their STEAM activities and Bernadette from Wabaunsee County.
