Mardi Gras at A. E. Phillips

A. E. Phillips’ third grades hosted their annual Mardi Gras parade on Tuesday. The students learn about Louisiana in social studies and language arts, then do a research project. The projects are displayed on wagons — floats — to share with the student body during a parade. In photo at left, Amelia Constanza and Avery Dixon get ready for the parade, while at right, Asher Scully and Reeves Kilpatrick show off their masks and throws.
