ICS 4th grade did a unit on landscape/industry/resources of WI. Students researched the meaning of all the symbols on our current state flag and created a new state flag that represented WI's current state. Each color and symbol had to represent something that makes Wisconsin Wisconsin. The staff and students voted and the winners were Lilyla E, Aliciana E, and Alexis T. All of our 4th graders did a great job, but special recognition was given to these three. #ICSEagles
