The community of REACHVILLE is now open! Ms. Heery's REACH art students have been working on a fun project. Each student received a plot of land from the Government U.S.H(eery) to build their houses. They spent time landscaping their properties to make the houses into their dream homes and then it was Move In Day! Everyone picked their lot in the town and Mayor Heery (self-appointed) was there to present each of them with their Title Deed to sign to make it official! WELCOME TO REACHVILLE, the land of hope! #mchsproud
