Historical Figures Come Alive at Arbury Hills School

The students portrayed historical figures for an audience of family members Friday, May 9.

After weeks of researching famous historical Americans, the second graders at Arbury Hills School in Mokena presented a living museum for family members on Friday, May 9. Each student dressed up as a famous historical American and recited a speech after being "activated" by a family member or guest. Special visitor was Shawn Walsh, Regional Superintendent for Will County.
