It was such a pleasure to have students from Giffen Memorial Elementary School on campus Tuesday. They discovered mysteries of the past while touring the Throop Museum and made a sugar scrub in the lab. They toured different areas of campus and got an exclusive glimpse into the life of an ACPHS student.
