Library Media Specialist Brittany Gripe had been guiding the class tracking a real bill from the previous general session. Applying this knowledge, students are now drafting their own original bills. Representative Duke visited to answer questions and explain her direct experience in government. This was a first-hand experience applying classroom lessons with a state representative and gave these students a practical understanding of civic responsibility.
Thank you to Representative Duke for taking the time to speak with our class and encourage local civic engagement. A special thank you to Mrs. Gripe for organizing this visit and sharing these photos with us. ๐ฆ๐งก #LionPride #GravetteSchools
