0329wax1
Brady Hall tells the story of Frederick Douglass at Riverbend Elementary on Thursday morning as parents and students visit the school’s media center to hear each wax museum figure tell the history of great Americans.
Riverbend Elementary School students posed as great American figures in a wax museum Thursday as parents and students visited the media center of the school on Cleveland Highway in Gainesville to learn the history of the famous people. Each student had a card with a button on it; when a visitor pressed the button, the student told the story of the person being portrayed. The school is part of the Hall County School System.
