Mrs. Stout's Tennessee History classes wrapped up their unit on County & State Government this week with a visit from County Executive Wade Creswell and State Representative Monty Fritts. We also appreciated Rep. Fritts for staying after school to speak with the History Club.
Our students learned a great deal from all the guest speakers and hopefully it has inspired them to take a more active role in our city, county, and state.
WEAR RED ON FRIDAY! Help promote American Heart Month throughout February and National Wear Red Day (February 3rd) to bring greater attention to heart disease as a leading cause of death for Americans.
Check out what Mrs. Stout's Tennessee History Classes have been doing! Students have been learning about Local Government. They did research on each city, but focused primarily on the City of Harriman and the different departments that make up our local government.
Special guests dropped by to speak to classes about their departments. Chief Tapp, Captain Owenby, and Detective Turner visited from the Police Department, and Mr. Scott Mason also came and spoke about his role as the City Manager. Student's toured the Harriman Public Library, where Ms. Edwards explained how the library serves the community and the role of the Library Board, as well as educating us on the history of the library.
Student's have also been encouraged to sit in on a City Council meeting - Lainey Skarsten and Trevor Nichols got to see government in action when they attended the Rockwood City Council Monday. Coming up... County & State Government.
