Ryland Heights Elementary students and staff
give returning veteran and his children a homecoming to remember
Staff Sgt. James Wells hadn't seen his children in 11 months because he has been serving his country in Afghanistan. That changed when Principal Cathy Barwell helped him plan a surprise visit to the school on April 1.
Thank you Ryland Heights Elementary students and staff for paying tribute to Sgt. Wells and his service.
