PPS students invited to see Queen
Sixteen Petersburg†fourth-graders are among just 20 classes of elementary school children officially invited by Gov. Tim Kaine to be at the State Capitol when Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II of England tours the area this Thursday.
The Queen is visiting Virginia as part of Jamestown 400th Anniversary events. She last toured Virginia in 1976.










Today’s P-I suggests that the number of PPS fouth graders that will have the opportunity to see the Queen is 98, not the 16 indicated in the school’s press release.
