Chris Brundage, fourth grade teacher at Marlow Elementary School, has had her classes send laminated traveling bears to people across the country for the past seven years. Much like a Flat Stanley, students send their bears to people they knew and asked for them to send the bear on, returning a postcard from each destination.
This year, student Cheyenne Miller, 9, got a big surprise when she received a letter from Vice President Joe Biden telling about how he received her bear, Courtney.
