The St. Louis Cardinals’ Fredbird & Friends Elementary School Program visited Augusta Elementary on Thursday, Jan. 17.
St. Louis native and former Cardinals pitcher Kyle McClellan and Fredbird were on hand to visit with Augusta Elementary students.
McClellan and Fredbird where there to promote the program’s key messages: Be Active! Be Responsible! Be Yourself! Be a Good Teammate!
Fredbird & Friends was designed to be a fun, interactive way for students to better understand how they can be successful at school, at home, and in life. This includes:
Being physically active and participating in extracurricular activities and clubs;
Valuing what makes them unique as well as the contributions of others;
Working together with peers, teachers, and family members; and
Seeking out help from the adults in their lives who can help them achieve their goals.
