We the People. . .





As part of the 5th grade, Gabe got to participate in the "We the People" night. His group had to read a paper they had written about the government and then answer questions from the judges about the subject they had chosen. Gabe's group talked about the Bill of Rights and Freedom of expression. Gabe answered the first question from the judges and then another one about whether school uniforms go against our freedom of expression. He did a very good job. He said he was really nervous, but we couldn't tell. Afterward he got a certificate and we took him to eat at Big J's. We were very proud of him.
