May 3, 2023
When seniors get to the point where they are about to graduate high school, they can look back and say there are many things that helped shape them growing up, but one that nobody thinks of is elementary school. Elementary school is a great place to learn and enhance social skills as well as basic skills. Elementary is normally the first place that kids can be around a lot of kids and figure out who they like to spend their time around. Whether kids are shy or outgoing, there is somebody for everyone. Elementary school also teaches kids the basic learning skills like the alphabet and basic math. Though every kid gets taught the same things they can have very different experiences.
