RED BUD, Ill. – Last week, Illinois State Representative David Friess visited schools in his district to distribute State of Illinois coloring books to 4th and 5th grade students.
While there, Rep. Friess also taught the students about the role of a State Representative and everything they do. This was followed by a question and answer session where the students were able to get their questions answered directly from Rep. Friess.
The schools visited were Evansville Attendance Center in Sparta, Lincoln Elementary School in Sparta, St. Mary’s Catholic Grade School in Chester, and St. John’s Lutheran Grade School in Chester.
More schools in the district will also be visited in the coming months.
“I had a wonderful time meeting with students this week,” Rep. Friess said. “Thank you to each school that allowed me to visit. It’s always an uplifting and fun time to get to meet the youth of our district. I loved getting to talk to them, answer their questions, and teach them a little bit about what we do. I’m also glad we were able to provide them with coloring books that will educate them on the history of our great state.”
Rep. Friess proudly serves the people of the 115th District.
