After a busy morning, they headed to lunch where Executive Director of Human Resources, Data and School Counseling Angela Wise-Landman held random drawings for some additional teacher swag.

The day was capped off with the traditional bus tour of the district, with Crispell Middle School Principal John Boyle as the very capable, knowledgeable tour guide. The tour departed from the high school and stopped at all six other schools in the district. The teachers were met with cheering, enthusiastic staff members, welcoming them to the district.
