What an incredible day at the Caddo Mounds in Alto, Texas! Our 4th grade students had the opportunity to explore the rich history and culture of the Caddo people. From walking around the ancient mounds to learning about the traditional crafts and practices, it was a day filled with discovery and education. Seeing the grass hut was a highlight, giving us a glimpse into the traditional homes of the Caddo. A huge thanks to our chaperones and the staff at the site for making this field trip so memorable! #WhereLeadersSoarπŸ¦…
