During Friday's Enrichment Day students at Joseph City Elementary School participated in the Soccer Spectacular event. Three fields were set up by the Maintenance and Grounds departments. Coach Caleb Layden taught the students the ins and outs of soccer during PE classes throughout the month of September. The staff helped students know into which goal to kick the ball. We even had volunteer High School students help keep the peace on the fields. Some even were challenged to a match. A good time was had by all. We appreciate all that helped make this event a success. It was heard by several students, "We should do this again!"
