Theatre Espresso Visits the 5th GradeThe fifth grade welcomed Theatre Espresso on Monday, May 8. The Theatre company presented an interactive play about the Boston Massacre, culminating with a trial of Captain Preston. The students debated the facts and voted on the outcome. Did Captain Preston shout the order to fire causing the death of civilians? This engaging program brought this point of history to life in an entertaining and thought provoking manner. Thank you, parents! This program was sponsored by Enrichment and would not be possible without your contributions to the CSA |
