As a resource teacher for our city's gifted and talented population, we are always struggling to find programs which are beneficial and affordable. Imagine our delight when EJ Abell volunteered for our students ro visit the River Heritage Museum! The students ranging from 4th-8th graders were greeted by three volunteers who were extremely prepared, organized, and well-versed. Since they divided the large group into three smaller ones, the students were able to learn a lot along with having their questions answered. The students also loved having the opportunity to use the simulator and creating an individual art project with Ms. Abell. The professionalism of the staff of the River Heritage Museum was above reproach! It was most rewarding to have the students and adults who attended this field trip be reminded of the importance the river industry has upon our lives. Paducah is very fortunate to have such an outstanding organization!
