Today, Miss West Virginia, Courtney Bearer, came to West Taylor! She showed the students her hula hoop routine that she performed in the Miss West Virginia and Miss America pageants. She talked to them about heart health, and she read a story. She stayed all morning to do hula hooping with each gym class.
