On Friday, May 8th, the Montrose 5th graders met their Howard 5th grade pen pals. The two classes had been exchanging letters all school year and had the opportunity to meet each other at the Montrose softball field. They played a game of kickball and had some fun on the playground as well. It was exciting for both classes to finally meet face to face!
