It was a home run for the students of St. Joan of Arc Catholic Academy in Jackson Heights, Queens when two beloved baseball mascots made a surprise visit to the school.
Mr. and Mrs. Met stopped by as part of the Amazin’ Mets Foundation’s dual initiatives: “Ya Gotta Read,” which promotes literacy, and “Mets on the Move,” which encourages physical fitness.
The mascots visited every classroom, bringing smiles and excitement to students of all grades.
The day reached its peak in the gym, where fourth and fifth graders got the chance to play some ball with the famous duo.
Cheers filled the air as kids took their swings and celebrated each hit.
The visit was a grand slam that created fun and unforgettable memories for the school community.
