Emerson students were visited by some special guests in these past two weeks. Last Friday, we celebrated "High Five Friday" by inviting the CCC boys Basketball team to get our students pumped for a day of learning. Also, yesterday, the CHS musical cast brought a shortened version of their show for our students to watch. Our students love when we have "special guests" in the building!
