Mrs. Harris's second grade class has been working with our district technology facilitator, Mrs. Tanner, on a bridge building project. Mrs. Tanner has been doing this project with students for many years, and she said she has never seen a bridge built in such a unique and successful way. She was so proud of Marsela and Nahomy that she presented them with a STEAM Award certificate, recognizing their outstanding work. We are so proud of these smart girls!
