During a Safe Routes to School bike class, students from Mesilla Elementary learned about the anatomy and physics of a bicycle.
Students drew an array of bicycles, and with the help of the Safe Routes to School team, students had their design made into t-shirts for volunteers that have helped during the Family Bike Fiesta.
On Tuesday, to show their appreciation, students framed t-shirts as a gift for the LCPS Board of Education.
Thank you to the students from Mesilla Elementary!
