🚌 The 4th graders went on a field trip today to the capitol and the Heritage Center. We got a tour of the capitol and got to see where the legislators do their magic and then we got to tour the heritage center. The favorite part may have been the ice cream from our bus driver, DuWayne! Thanks for the fun day, 4th grade! 🚌
