🎶The Erie Philharmonic visited the 1st-grade classes at McKinley Elementary yesterday, and it was an incredible experience! Students had a fun time learning about music, exploring the sounds of different instruments, and engaging in hands-on activities that brought the world of music to life.

Thank you to our community partners, such as the Erie Philharmonic, for creating opportunities like these for our students. These experiences spark curiosity, inspire creativity, and leave lasting memories for our students. It connects classroom learning to real-world experiences and builds a strong, supportive community for our students. 💙

🍵We have some tea to spill!

Yesterday, 5th-grade students at Lincoln Elementary School participated in the Shakespeare Residency Performance program that is led by Marquis Wallace. This program works with Anansi Collaborations to align with what students are learning in class and put it into practice on stage. Students were able to pretend that they were on a show called "Spill that Tea" and act. The joy and excitement these students had was unexplainable.

Thank you to Anansi Collaborations for partnering with Lincoln Elementary School to provide our students with a hands-on experience and to "spill some tea". 😉
