Report from the course of the competition of class 6a student – Olivia Markowicz
Every year, our school organizes a contest of knowledge about Casimir Pulaski. Each class prepares its own project in the form of a poster. All students work together on the project. Every student tries to make the poster of his class the best. This year our class 6a took third place. All the students of our class were very involved in this project. All the posters were hung at the entrance to the school so that everyone could see them. Our class did a very good job.
