Elementary students "sleep with sharks"
Students left Thursday afternoon and toured Gatlinburg, Tenn. before checking in for their adventure about 8 p.m. Students participated in a dive show, a scavenger hunt, and a creature feature. They also made fish prints, answered trivia questions and stayed awake most of the night watching the sharks swim overhead. Students learned about the various sea creatures and fresh water animals housed at the aquarium and had the entire building to themselves as they explored. After breakfast, students spent the morning exploring town before loading the bus to travel back to Murphy Elementary.
Nineteen students, 17 parents, and two school employees made the trip, an annual event that students look forward to all year, teachers said.
