SUMMARY: Fourth graders at Hatley School in Mississippi spent nine weeks researching famous Mississippians and brought their research to life in a wax museum. The students portrayed different Mississippi natives like Jimmy Buffett, B.B. King, and Britney Spears, sharing stories of their lives and careers. The teachers behind the project hoped to inspire the children to see that hard work and dedication can lead to success, despite their Mississippi roots. The students learned valuable lessons from the project, such as perseverance and never giving up, as they embodied their chosen famous Mississippians in the spotlight. This was the first year for Hatley's Famous Mississippians Wax Museum.
