In addition to meeting the great people in Lee County at the Academies in Rose Hill, the EHC group got to stay at the Olde Mill Inn bed and breakfast! We also enjoyed eating at Tazewell's Old Town Grill and at Cumberland Gap's Webb's Country Kitchen.

We had a great time in Rose Hill! Thank you to the principal of Rose Hill Elementary, Lynn Metcalfe, for her hospitality and help in making the Lee County Teacher Reading Academies a success. You will see indications in the photographs of the wonderful classrooms we were permitted to use and the refreshments that we enjoyed. Lynn is present in a few of the photographs, and if I remember correctly, she is in the first grade group photo. A large part of the credit for a successful event goes to her for her support and cheerful participation at every turn, and to her staff and faculty.

Not all of the photographs are tagged for grade level, but this is a work in progress. If you see that your photograph is missing a tag, leave a comment or send e-mail!
