🍿🚒✈️ 2nd Grade’s Big Adventure in Nac! 🏦🏛️
Our 2nd graders had an absolute blast exploring our incredible community today! We took a trip around Nacogdoches to learn, explore, and see how our local hometown works.
Here is a look at where our adventure took us:
🍿 SuSu’s Popcorn: We got a behind-the-scenes look at how their delicious popcorn is made and even got to sample the yummy Marshmallow flavor!
🏛️ Nacogdoches Visitor Center: We stepped back in time and learned all about the rich history of Texas’ oldest town!
🚒 Nacogdoches Fire Station: We got to sit inside a real fire truck, see the firefighters' gear up close, and meet "Bertha"—the oldest engine in Nac!
🏦 CBTX Bank: The kiddos peeked inside the vault, visited the boardroom, held real $500 and $1,000 bills (!), and learned why saving money is so important.
✈️ The Airport: We got up close to real airplanes, learned how they get fueled, and discovered just how far these planes can travel!
We even saw a CELEBRITY in the wild! Coach Carthel took time out from winning football games at SFA to say hi to our crew!
It was a full day of learning, fun, and community pride! Huge thanks to all of our amazing hosts for welcoming our 2nd graders today! ❤️
