Mrs. Srystad’s 8th grade Real-World Writing students visited Heartwood to hear some of the residents’ stories. The students wrote their own interview questions, took notes as they listened, and turned what they learned into biographies to share with the residents and their families.
Thank you to the Heartwood residents who spent time with our students and trusted them with a piece of their story.
