ESU 16 School Psychologists had a blast visiting the OWLS Program. It was community day so we worked out, made a Easter door decoration, had a pizza day where they got to order delivery for the first time, and watered the plants at the greenhouse for their upcoming plant sale in May! Laurie & Ashlie are doing such a wonderful job teaching these wonderful students job and life skills. Way to go OWLS!!!!
