Parents of South Amboy Elementary School:

Each year our fourth grade puts on a living museum.  The past two years we have had to hold this "virtually".  Our students put a lot of effort into these videos and we are very proud of them.  These historical figures were all picked and performed by the students themselves, the District doesn’t necessarily endorse any of the statements made, and no student is required to watch all of the presentations.  Enjoy the playlist:
