Participants were able to tour the building; meet administrators and staff members; and learn about Addison Trail’s curriculum as they followed an abbreviated version of their student’s daily schedule. Principal Michael Bolden welcomed the group and shared successes of Addison Trail, as well as important information for the school year.

Nearly 400 students were represented in 1,941 classroom sessions.
