John Muir Elementary School | Portage Community School District

Thank you to the members of the Portage Master Gardeners who came into the John Muir classrooms and taught gardening skills to our students this spring!

There were so many fun acts in this year's talent show - from music, to dancing, to jokes, to completing a rubik's cube in literally seconds... kudos to all the kids for performing on stage!
