Mt Laurel fifth-grade GRC students visit the Red Barn to drop off supplies collected through their office and volunteer supply drive.
Recently fifth-grade Gifted Resource Class students from Mt Laurel Elementary stopped by the Red Barn to drop off supplies they had collected during an office and volunteer supply drive at the school. The students, under the supervision of teacher JoBeth Robbins, chose the Red Barn as the drive’s beneficiary.
The Red Barn is located on the banks of the Little Cahaba River in Leeds. The nonprofit organization offers children and adults the opportunity to work with and learn to ride horses. The Red Barn accommodates people with physical, cognitive or emotional disabilities. Its programs include traditional riding lessons, therapeutic riding, equine assisted therapy and related academic enrichment activities.
