WHARTON CENTER FOR PERFORMING ARTS
ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE: The young David is kept on the sidelines of recess until he fits as Captain Hook, but he soon grows tired of playing the part and decides he wants to be a hero. David serves as storyteller and performer. Through his journey, David and his friends learn the importance of accepting and including others who may not look exactly the way that they do.

Today our class visited the Capital Area District Library so students could conduct research in preparation for their upcoming Wax Museum Research Project. Students will choose an individual who has made a positive contribution to our world.

Students are able to interact with the text and make connections to it as they listen and follow along.
Fifth grade camp has been a tradition in Williamston for 47 years and it is only one week away! Students are in the process of making their lanyards to wear at Camp Pa Wa Pi.
