Prior to the field trip, Sandler wrote Williams a letter to inquire about having a question and answer session with the students following the performance. In the days following, Williams’ assistant responded, explaining that the actor would be happy to meet with the students after the show.

“The experience was overwhelming. The students told me that it was one of the greatest nights of their life—they were able to meet a world famous icon,” explained Sandler.
