Third Grade Wax Museum
May 1st, 2024
As one of Prep's signature experiences each year, our third graders create their very own wax museum! The students dress as a historical figure they have researched, stand "frozen," and recite a speech when visitors approach them.
Teachers, students, and parents all toured their exhibits and were delighted to engage with these famous and influential characters! See for yourself in the video below and check out our photo gallery for more.
