The 5th graders went on a trip to the Woodbridge Municipal Complex after learning about government in their Social Studies class. We had a tour of the police department and learned many of the important jobs that the officers handle on a day to day basis. We also met with Mayor McCormac and found out what the job of being mayor entailes. Lastly, we visited a live court session and learned how the judge handles violations that happen in our town. It was a great learning experience for the students!

 In honor of the 97th annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade the 5th grade class listened to the story "Balloons Over Broadway".
