Cherokee Elementary School fifth-grade students showcased the circus skills they recently acquired before a cheering crowd of family and friends during the school’s annual Cirque du Jour traveling circus troupe event.
Prior to the show, the students worked with circus trainers in their physical education classes to learn special circus skills to entertain their fans, including juggling, Chinese Yo-Yo’s and the Diabolo Stick. The circus program is designed to motivate students to participate more fully in physical education and cultural arts activities.
