Teachers and staff members from Jacksboro Elementary School wave to students along College Street Thursday afternoon as part of the parade the school sponsored.

Jacksboro Elementary School students had a chance to see people they had not seen in nearly three weeks Thursday, March 27, afternoon.

Teachers and staff hopped into their vehicles and did a parade around the city. Using the same path the Jacksboro Fire Department uses to distribute stockings on Christmas Eve, the two-hour parade enabled teachers and students to reconnect even if for just a moment.
