Every grade in elementary (K-6) acts out a play around Christmas time. One memorable play was done in the theme of
Disney by the 5th grade students, in which the students dressed in mouse hats, asdalmatians andCruella de Vil from "101 Dalmatians ", as Mary Poppins, as Siamese cats from "Lady and the Tramp ", and many other Disney based characters. The students then sang a song and acted out the character they were dressed as. This is done every year with different themes per grade, but it is not certain how long this tradition has been going on.
