Thank You, Arkansas State Representative Denise Ennett for hosting our 6th Grade AVID Scholars at the State Capitol last week. Our scholars were awed by the architecture and interior design of the capitol. They even got to handle $100,000 in cash at the state treasurer and had the good fortune to watch a debate on the floor of the House of Representatives chambers. A wonderful time was had by all. #arkansaslegislature #representativedeniseennett #avid4possiblities #avid #thebestisyettocome #millsmiddleschoolcomets #arkansasstatecapitol #pcssdproud
