HISTORY DRIVES UP TO ROCHESTER HILLS SCHOOL
Third-grade students at Long Meadow Elementary School in Rochester Hills got a surprise Friday as Steve Shotwell of the Henry Ford’s Greenfield Village brought his grandfather’s fully restored Ford Model T to show off to four classes — and dressed up for the occasion.
Shotwell, formerly a Troy schools administrator, now spends his life sharing his true passion, the Model T.
The 100 third-grade students have been learning about Michigan and the growth of its economy. Shotwell’s visit was organized by teacher Krista Hadel as the culmination of the students’ year of Michigan fun.
