It’s an annual tradition at Southern Wells that goes back more than 50 years — even pre-dating Southern Wells Elementary. It’s Fifth Grade Kite Fly Day, a lesson that’s carried on by fifth grade teacher Ross Palmer designed to teach students basic principles of science and math. Above, students carry their kites to the football practice field to test their designs. It was 72 degrees and not a cloud in the sky for the event. (Photos by Glen Werling)
