-Oak Hill 8th graders coming to deliver the stools they made for their Kindergarten buddy! Back in March, K teachers interviewed the kindergarteners about their favorite things. Oak Hill 8th graders were matched with a K student and crafted a stool to showcase their kindergartener's interests. The results were amazing! It was so special to see our KA kiddos interact with their 8th grade buddy :)
