"We do kindergarten through 12th grade. Today at Waynesfield, we're just doing kindergarten through 5th grade, and we kind of do intermingling a little bit. So, with our kindergarten and first graders, there are a couple of things that are a little more advanced for them, so we brought out a slime or our squishy circuits, just something a little more hands-on that is age-appropriate," said Ashley Hunter, Rhodes State College.
