Ready Set Learn: A great time had by all!

Preschool and future kindergarten students came for a visit to A.R. Lord Elementary for Ready Set Learn. The events included a visit in the school library to look at books and hear Principal Ms. Car talk about early learning. Afterwards the visiting children and parents/caregivers accompanied the school's primary students to watch a fun musical show by singer-performer: Angela Kelman.
