Spirits were soaring at Polk Street School on Inauguration Day 2009. Students in Kindergarten through sixth grade came together in classrooms throughout the building to view, many on interactive whiteboards, this historic event . Listen and watch as the staff and students at Polk Street School celebrate this proud moment in our nation's history. What advice do you have for our new president? Why don't you share your thoughts by posting a comment.

An excellent recap of the day. I enjoyed seeing all of the smiling faces on Election day. Through the use of our interactive whiteboards the students were able to witness first hand a very important day in our country's history. They will have these memories to pass on to their children. The message from President Obama of a better America through hard work, sacrifice and commitment gives americans a genuine feeling of hope and renewal. Thank you Polk Street School for including the children in this historical event.

I hope that Obama will pursue all the things that he says that he will change! I think that he feels nervous being the president and that he deserves a chance! He made history being the first African American to become President and that is an honor.
ReplyDeleteIt was really great to be able to watch the Inauguration with our first graders on our activboard. They will be able to look back on this day and remember how they got the opportunity to witness history in the making. Thank you to the district for giving us the technology to make this possible! Love, Class 1BF
