Fifth-grade students from C.P. Squires Elementary School showed off their skills Thursday during a luncheon at Texas Station. Students who studied etiquette put their salad forks into action as part of an end-of-year celebration.

Principal Barry Bosacker took part in the dining along with about 120 students at Texas Station’s Houston Ballroom.

Texas Station also presented the school with a $1,200 donation, from the coins collected in the property’s water fountain, according to a news release.
