The packed parking lot and crowded halls were just one indication of the success of O'Donnell Middle School's "Knight of Excellence."
Students, parents and family members filled the school last Thursday night to visit classrooms and observe projects completed by students in all grades. Every area of the school offered something different from science projects to a talent show to blues singing.
The cafeteria, one of the most crowded rooms in the school, was dubbed "Tastes of the World" for the night.
