Rise and Shine

This morning we were off to an early start! Everyone met in the lobby for breakfast at 6:00 am with bags packed and ready to go. We loaded the buses at 6:30 to head to the United States Capitol. Before our tour, we had the honor of meeting Congressman Brett Guthrie on the Capitol steps for pictures. He came to Sorgho for our Veterans Day program, and we presented him with a US flag painted with the fingerprints of every child at our school. When Congressman Guthrie appeared at the Capitol, he was carrying the flag painting that we made for him.

Then we headed into the Capitol for our guided tour. The artwork was amazing and was everywhere we turned. We saw statues of Henry Clay, Ronald Reagan, Martin Luther King, Jr., and one of the newest commissioned statues, Rosa Parks.
