Elementary Teachers Surprise Students Out of School

Schools have been closed in South Carolina through at least March 31st but Burgess Elementary school teachers aren’t letting that stop them from bringing cheer to their students. The teachers conducted their own mini parade and rode through local neighborhoods in their cars. They dressed up and honked their horns and waved to surprised kids as they drove by. The gesture was meant to brighten their days and set an example for social distancing. A PE teacher said of the gesture, “We miss them dearly…this is not a regular situation, so it’s something new for us and we just want to see their smiling faces.”
