  he might look when he is 
  100 years old.

Friday, Feb. 10, was the 100th day of school for student

Homewood District 153.

The kindergarteners at Willow School found a fun way to celebrate by pretending to be people 100 years from now. They came as grandmas and grandpas, completing their outfits with silver-haired wigs, mustaches, beads and bow ties.

And they counted to 100!
