Today, WES 4th graders stepped back in time with a visit to Parker Pioneer Homestead near Harrisburg. The Homestead is a recreated 19th-century town where history comes alive through historic buildings, artifacts, and hands-on experiences.

Students had a wonderful time exploring life as it was in the past — and one special highlight was seeing our very own Ms. Deana Bonham join in by playing the fiddle alongside the local band.
