Take Me Out to the Ball Game! Superintendent Olmos Throws First Pitch at Sacramento River Cats Game

On May 6, Visions students stepped out of the virtual classroom and into the ballpark for an unforgettable day at the Sacramento River Cats’ AAA School Days event! Designed to combine education with entertainment, this annual program welcomes local schools for an interactive experience centered on the importance of character, attendance, and academic success.

Throughout the day, students participated in engaging activities that brought learning to life beyond the virtual classroom setting. The event featured a pre-game assembly, opportunities for player Q&As, and the excitement of a student parade around the field – giving students a chance to celebrate teamwork and school spirit in a fun and memorable way.

“It was so fun to see so many of our students chatting, catching up, and enjoying a great day together at the ballpark watching the River Cats!” said Betty Brady, Assistant to the Superintendent.

“Throwing out the first pitch is a moment I’ll never forget,” said Superintendent Olmos. “I’m grateful for the opportunity to share such a special experience with our Visions community.”
