Mr Wilson's class had arranged to have a drive-by parade for him today (Thu May 7th) at 12:00.
He's doing such a wonderful job of homeschooling his 3rd grade class at MCS. One of his students, Rowan Riordan came up with the idea, inspired by teachers parades around the country.
I was asked to stop by and take some photos , and thought it may be a fun story for you.
Includes 2 very short videos found here: Parade video and another one here: 2nd Parade video Editors note: I had a third one that was much longer but I messed it up by tilting the camera too much. I am a novice after all.
But I did take some more photos though!
