What the kids are saying

"All of you made the play seem so real. I felt like I was watching it actually happen, as though I was living it. I knew what was going on, and I came to understand the characters." - A seventh grader, Sylvester Middle School

"I hope to see the play again when I
grow up!" - A fifth grader, Kimball Elementary
