A lesson in American history by retired educator Susie Jacobs, an update on the progress of the Brantley County School System by Dr. Angela Haney, assistant superintendent and director of curriculum, instruction and assessment for the county schools and a time of delightful, inspiring and amusing entertainment by talented pre-schoolers were all enjoyed by members of the BCREA Wednesday during a meeting held at Hoboken Elementary School.
Special guests who addressed those attending included State Rep. John Corbett and Sen. Mike Hodges, who will be returning to Atlanta in January to serve in the next session of the Georgia General Assembly.
Jacobs talked about the pilgrims and stories of the first Thanksgiving. Years ago, students and teachers were given two days off for the holiday but today, Jacobs pointed out, it takes a whole week.
