Gardiners Avenue Elementary School’s Mustang Market opened for business and offered students fun and educational items on Nov. 8.
Each class streamed into the gymnasium to find an entire storefront with toys and goodies operated by PTA volunteers. Students brought their own funds and learned how to manage their money by seeing what they can afford. Fun opportunities were also offered, such as contributing to a marble collection to decide a costume for principal Jared Vanderbeck to wear, or vouchers to help art teacher Alyssa Arndt as an assistant for a day.
