SALISBURY — “Oh the Lord’s been good to me!” Sacred Heart School’s lower elementary students celebrated Johnny Appleseed’s birthday Sept. 26 with homemade applesauce, math and measuring facts, art projects, songs, and a visit from Johnny Appleseed.
Eighth-grader Drew Hansen represented Johnny Appleseed – reading students a story about his life and answering questions from students.
Teachers helped students appreciate American history and discover the man who made apple (and pear) trees grow heavy with the bounty of their fruit across most of this country.
