Members of the Marion Boys' Soccer Team came to play at recess with our K-2 students today. The idea was led by one of our former students and current member of the boys' soccer team who made a plan, reached out to Mrs. Harmer, and organized the day. The students loved learning more about the game of soccer and running around with the "big boys"! #lesinspire #misdinspire
