Milton Family Paints U.S. Map at St. Agatha School

The Siris family of Milton, whose children attend , offered their time and effort by painting a giant 16 by 27 foot map of the United States of America on Columbus Day.

Mrs. Siris explained that when their daughter Melanie was in third grade at St. Agatha School Mr. Siris had seen one of these maps of the United States at the playground of another school. Melanie, at the time, was studying the United States.

Mr. Siris knew that St. Agatha School needed one of these great maps and when their twins LC and AJ entered the third grade they had the time to create it. The Siris family, with the help of a couple of aunts and uncles spent Columbus Day painting the 50 Nifty United States in the back parking lot.

“It was a pretty educational project. Even the adults learned a thing or two about our States,” said Mrs. and Mr. Siris.
