0

SIDNEY — Second- and third-graders at Fairlawn Local School recently presented a living history museum and a mini-musical, “On the Shoulders of Giants.”

The students selected, researched and represented people of influence in world history. Families, friends, and teachers attended the performance and watched as the characters in the living history museum came to life, giving small speeches.

The Living Museum was followed by the mini-musical, which featured seven songs about the power of change, innovation and the importance of kindness and forgiveness.

Music Director Sonya Phillips said about the play, “It is very important that our students understand that the way they treat others and how they choose to pursue their passions can greatly influence the world around them. They hold limitless potential for positive change, and Fairlawn encourages them all to realize how wonderfully capable they really are.”
