Joliet Mayor visits Taft students

Joliet Mayor Bob O'Dekirk recently visited with third grade students at Taft Elementary

School. The students were learning about communities within Illinois in social science and

gained a better understanding on how the city of the Joliet works. The mayor also talked about

his responsibilities and answered their questions. After his visit, Mayor O'Dekirk took pictures

with Taft Principal Carol Paul and students (from left to right) Christian Aguirre, Kerrigan

Simpson, Travis Blatzheim and Jordan Jackson.
