Cape Hatteras Secondary School, This Week at Cape Hatteras Secondary School March 4th Edition

CHSS Wax Museum

One of Mrs. Polk's middle school math groups were given the task to research a key person in the Corps of Discovery Expedition. The students were assigned to write a research paper about their key person and portray them as a wax figure for all to experience.  When viewers pushed a button, the wax figures came to life and shared details about their significance in the Corps of Discovery Expedition. The following students portrayed the following people: John Fairbanks - Meriwether Lewis, Kai Conner - William Clark, Peyton Cabral - York, Conner Tawes - Sergeant Charles Floyd, Nathan Whitehead - Toussaint Charbonneau, Emmi Baker - Sacagawea, Laya Barley - Jean Baptiste Charbonneau, James Tawes - Seaman the dog, and Rubie Shoemake - George Drouillard.
