Students were challenged and encouraged this evening with the interactive presentation given by County Executive Wade Creswell. Students were given instructions and then 15 minutes to prepare a short speech. Some of them even volunteered to speak and each did an amazing job. Students always learn so much from this session.

So proud of these guys working so hard this evening at the Carolyn Bush Roddy Foundation gala.
Hey Friends, I know many of you may wonder why I post students at all the civic meetings they attend. They are required to get a photo as "proof" they attended the meetings and the graduation requirement is that they attend two. It's like turning in a paper at school. I am so proud of these guys that I then have to post these pictures. 😁
