Over thirty students of the Jefferson School from Marion toured the Williamson County Historical Society Friday, May 16th, 2014. The students, all fifth graders, were part of a tour arranged by teacher, Wendy Goodman, who schedules her students on tours each year at the museum.
Wendy said that they never seem to schedule enough time for the students when touring so they extended their time there this year and still didn’t seem to have long enough. The students all expressed great interest over historical items, although a number of them were certainly baffled by the way things used to be handled in the past and rightly so.
The students were broken up into four groups, each group given their own tour guide. The guides who served the students at this event were President Bob Jackson, Museum Coordinator Sharon Vansaghi, Director Sam Lattuca and society member Ursula Richey.
