Rick Kelly Native American presentation

Huge thanks to Rick Kelly and Angel Kurtz who came to share their Native American heritage with students and bring to life a rich cultural experience with 5th graders at Mosaic Elementary. The presentation included traditional music and dance where students were invited to join in the experience. Thanks also to our student presenters from the Daddio family - Sunny, Ernie, and Livvy
