Mrs. Catherine Burge and Mrs. Ally Neelis, Mrs. Carmen Davis, and Mrs. Recinda Theriot’s classes spent April 11th participating in the Special Olympics at Picayune High School! The classes competed in several athletic events, such as a wheelchair race, a tennis ball/softball ball throw, and a long jump. Each member got to play in two events. This was a truly unforgettable experience for the students, and they had a lot of fun! A special thank you to Davis Lawn Care for paying for the class buddy shirts!
