Annual Visit to West School in New Canaan a "Hit" With Fourth-Grade Weatherkids

One of my favorite stops on my annual Weatherkids tour is West School in New Canaan. One of the administrators is a neighbor of mine and a former classmate from Andrew Warde High School in Fairfield. The fourth-graders are always excited for the hour-long program. This year was no exception.

The theme of this year's visit was baseball. Two of the fourth-graders had batting practice during the taped class introduction, and the entire class sang a unique version of a classic seventh-inning stretch song.

What a great bunch of kids!
