Shakespeare's 446th Birthday Celebration

     This past week our elementary and middle school students and teachers donned their best face-painted Shakespearean moustache to make ready for an assembly that included a prelude to The Tempest (this year's middle school production), a scene from The Tempest acted by the eighth grade leads, a happy birthday sing, and a large cake with the bard's portrait iced on top.
     An unforgettable part of the assembly was when teachers were pitted one-on-one, using Shakespeare insult language.  It was hard to contain the laughter from students AND teachers.
