Celebrating school parade style
25 Mar 2020
MCPHERSON — Teachers at Lincoln Elementary were missing their students.
The school, like the rest of the McPherson school district and schools across Kansas, will not reopen as Gov. Laura Kelly shuttered the buildings for the year in response to COVID-19.
Those teachers at Lincoln hatched a plan — have a drive-by parade. A caravan of cars would drive by with windows open, so teachers could wave to those on the sidewalks.
