Mrs. Logan also had Trey help with reading intervention. Trey said, “It felt fun because I didn’t have to do my school work.”
Trey thought Melrose was a really good school because the kids and teachers were nice.
Another teacher who brought her children to Melrose was Ms. McDonald, who teaches first grade. Lily, 9, and Alyson, 19, got to help out and both had different opinions.

Lily said she would like to come again because she liked to help out her mom. She helped calm the kids down while her big sister, Alyson, helped by organizing papers and reading books to the class.
