We let them know the good snacks were at the Middle School Garden so they headed that direction instead. 🦌🦋

We were super excited to have the mayor, Kathleen Backer, come and talk to our 3rd graders. In 3rd grade we learn all about the different types of governments: local, state, and national. It was quite exciting to meet one of our local leaders. We got to learn about what being the mayor of New Ulm looks like and even earned ourselves our very own mayor pins!
