#tbt Many area schools started back this week. Students and teachers, have a great year! And remember: A noun is a person, place or thing; and, but, and or will get you pretty far; and, if you use the text of the preamble song for your test on the US Constitution, remember to add the phrase "of the United States" after "We the People." Schoolhouse Rock Live!, 1997-98 Season.
