Stanley Switlik fifth graders brought history to life as they geared up to present a “Living Wax Museum” at the school’s Parent To Kid night on Nov. 30. After research conducted in the school and public libraries on a famous historical figure, each student created a unique backdrop with information and pictures from his or her findings before dressing as the chosen figure with the help of Riet Steinmetz and the Marathon Community Theatre costume loft. Presentations to parents and fellow students were the centerpiece of the monthly event that brings families to the school for food and drinks, free books and take home activities.
