Our Fairview Alpha Elementary Wildcats had a very special visitor yesterday! Backpacker Joe passed by the school and decided to stop and visit with a few of our students. The students made handmade signs, picked him flowers, and were chanting "BACKPACKER JOE" when he walked up. Backpacker Joe said he was excited because this was the very first school he passed while on his mission, so far. Thank you Backpacker Joe for taking the time to talk with our students and including our district in your travels. We wish you the best as you continue your journey of walking through America and praying for our country! #NPSB #PPoP #TogetherWeCan #BackPackerJoe
