Tell-Tale Heart Courtroom Drama

A good time was had by all during the "Tell-Tale Heart” courtroom drama that Mrs. Sikes' fourth period English class performed.  Many thanks to Mrs. Johnson’s class for being the courtroom audience, and special kudos to Austin Kern for “pinch hitting” as judge for Dakota Fortenberry, who was absent.  Mrs. Johnson’s students did a great job of critiquing Mrs. Sikes' students’ performances.
