The Gause Elementary library was transformed into a fine dining establishment on Jan. 27 for Cindi Freeman’s second- and third-grade class to practice the etiquette skills they were recently taught by Mark Jasper, Washougal School District Nutrition Services Director.

“Knowing the basics of etiquette is an important life skill,” said Jasper. “We really stressed that you should think about how your actions affect others in all situations. Good manners are often just common sense and courtesy.”
