Wonderful job to the Northport Rising Star team. Students in grades one through five hosted a biographical Wax Museum honoring many influential people from the past and present. Guests pressed a button to hear biographical information from the authentically dressed students. The showcase was a wonderful opportunity for students to shine as unique and wonderful characters. It was an engaging morning with many parents and families who encouraged the students to do their very best in attendance.
