St. Andrew's fifth graders wrote an audio guide for the 1st Floor of the Bullock Texas State History Museum. Students' audio recordings were attached to the actual museum exhibits on Texas History Day. The purpose of the project was to understand the competing interests between the Native Americans and European colonists during the 18th Century in Texas.
