The fifth graders from Sunrise Elementary School in Sturgeon Bay experienced a field trip to Madison and our state capitol on Thursday. 73 students along with their teachers and parent chaperones had the opportunity to learn the inner-workings of our state government. Fifth-grade teacher Aaron Pairolero says the opportunity to learn outside the classroom impacted many of the students.
The fifth-grade students also visited the Veterans Museum and Physics Museum. in Madison. They concluded with a tour of the University of Wisconsin campus. Pairolero added that the students took many different nuggets away from the field trip with one commenting after the return to Sturgeon Bay that she wants to be the next governor of Wisconsin.
