A colorful array of frogs, tadpoles, mosquitoes and dragonflies invaded Young School on March 31 as second-graders proudly performed their swamp-themed musical for friends, families and neighbors.
“We’ve been working really hard,” Young School music teacher Lauren Schorsch told guests as they prepared to perform “Swamped: A Musical for Young Voices About Friendship, Tolerance and Courage.”
Students spent several months learning their singing and, in some cases, speaking parts for the show.
