πŸ“šβœ¨ Highland Elementary’s fourth-grade class had an unforgettable day in Bath County on March 10th! πŸ›οΈπŸŽ‰ Students embarked on a historic tour of the Omni Homestead Resort, guided by Maggie Kaysak, the resort’s guest experience manager. They explored the stunning property and connected its rich history to the innovations of each decade, aligning perfectly with Virginia Social Studies objectives. This hands-on experience made learning about Virginia history both real and meaningful! Following the tour, students attended the Young Author’s Celebration at Bath County High School, celebrating creativity and storytelling. βœοΈπŸ“– A huge THANK YOU to Jennifer Blakley, Lynne Botkin, Cappie Hull, Alan Puffenbarger, and especially Maggie Kaysak with the Omni Homestead Resort & Spa for making this incredible learning adventure possible! πŸ’™πŸ‘ #HES #HandsOnLearning #VirginiaHistory #YoungAuthorsCelebration
