Pence Staff Shout-out for our Pence 2nd grade team!
Our 2nd grade team, along with many staff & family volunteers just pulled off an amazing field trip for our entire 2nd grade! Our 2nd grade team worked closely with Timberdoodle to pull off our first Day into Night INDOOR field trip, with the feel of an outdoor vibe!
