During the Smithsonian Exhibit’s stay at the Twin Cities the Star Tribune invited a few schools to a special showing. The Mini-School staff decided that the students should be allowed the opportunity to go. The exhibit was very interesting. Some of the items that were there make you think about how amazing it would be to be remembered forever. Lincoln’s hat, a painting of Samuel Clemens A.K.A. Mark Twain, the space capsule, and the Tucker car are just a few of the more memorable displays. The better exhibits were crowded, but the crowd was small compared to the regular showings. I think the students, (See list below), and the staff, Ramona & Joanne, have been enhanced by this experience, that probably won’t come again for two lifetimes.
