Group activity with Mrs. Wilson of CIS Catoosa - a great lesson on the importance of communication, setting goals, encouraging each other and over coming distractions and set backs. And some friendly competition! The class with the best time won donuts. (plus, It was dress-up week for homecoming 😆)
