Just in case you cannot read the above handwritten letter, fifth-grader Jacob writes in part, "Dear, Ms. Sabrina....That was the best tour I would probably ever be on."
Ijams' educator Sabrina DeVault would add that Mrs. Daniels' fifth grade class from Belle Morris Elementary was an equally amazing and awesome group of students.
All grade levels have their own innate charms. Fifth-graders are smart and want to go on a long adventure. If we happen to find an alligator—which, of course, we never do—that's just great. We generally find owls, squirrels, chipmunks, frogs, turtles and snakes in season. But it is always an adventure.
And Jacob. The last time I fed the turkey vulture, I told her that, "Jacob said hello!"
