Our All Star Students had an awesome AVID speaker today! Meet Ashton, he is the son of our Graham Literacy Coach Mrs. Davis!
Ashton stopped by our classrooms to talk about his college experience wnd robotics team! During his visit to the classrooms, Ashton shared videos of his robotics competition and even brought a small combat robot so students can see a demonstration! How awesome is that! Thank you Ashton for coming out to Graham! ⭐️
