Thank you to Team HAVOC for sharing your knowledge with our students!

THIS WEEK - MIDDLE SCHOOL MAP TESTING!

In 2nd grade, the students have been learning about working to earn money and saving money. The Blackhawks and their teachers took a trip to Adrian Bank to see how it works! Kids got to go in the big vault, see the tube fly through the tunnel, and take a tour of the building. They were all gifted a notepad, pen, and sucker as well. Here's a big thanks to Adrian Bank for helping the 2nd grade teachers bring the lesson to the real world!
