Hello, Join Historical impressionist Peter Small on Thursday February 19th as he brings history to life in his portrayal of George Washington. Come meet the "Father of our Country" in his leadership role to form the country, from organizing the first American Army with the crossing of the Delaware River. Students journey back in time to interact with the first President of the United States. In a fun and informative atmosphere, learn about Washington’s leadership, his experiences, and his role in the development of the American Government. This includes distinguishing between the three branches of government. _________________________________________________________ __ Please be sure to complete your free registration for this event at http://www.connect2texas.net.

"I hear many people talk about tolerance and how we must learn to be tolerant toward those who are different from us. When we tolerate something, we put up with it temporarily until it is gone. We tolerate a toothache, back pain, and loud music coming from a neighbor’s house. Why would we ever put what we do with children in the same category? Instead, we should celebrate the differences of our children."
