NATIONAL HISTORY DAY UPDATE!!! 6th graders Cecelia and Reagan knocked it out of the park on Monday when they presented their website on the history of Social Security. After their presentation, a reporter from The Guardian, who was in the room, stepped out and interviewed them. That doesn’t happen every day. Junior, Emma Manion, was amazing in her performance (play). She took 1st in her room (10 students) and will perform again today in the finals against 10 other rooms. After her performance,she visited the Smithsonian Museum of Native Americans to find the historical character she researched. It took awhile but she found her, Ada Deer. Team Wisconsin is meeting with Senator Baldwin at the Capitol (Johnson is unavailable), then celebrating tonight by going to the Annual Congressional Baseball Game where Republicans and Democrats face off. We will keep you updated as final results come in. Thank you to all who donated to help with travel expenses for these talented young ladies!
