Blacks in Wax
February 27, 2009
The Blacks in
Wax Museum had the entire school buzzing
with excitement as classes anticipated entry into
a transformed school gymnasium. Prior to
admission,
classes were entertained with a video before
being escorted through the magical red curtains into
the Blacks in Wax museum. Once inside,
student participants lined the perimeter of
the gym floor dressed to
represent historical personalities. The wax figures
were brought to life with a gentle touch on the elbow. Students, staff,
parents and
guests got an opportunity to peek into the
past and learn a lot about African American
history. Kudos to social studies teachers
Ms. Neal, Ms. Dudley and Ms. Siegel for a
truly enchanting educational experience.
We naturally
look forward to next year.
