The Friday before Spring Break...Mr. Burks & our 8th graders presented their annual Wax Museum. This event was open to the public and had a terrific turn out. Last year, The Class created a specific place on the ICMS portion of the IC website to post photos of these students. Our plan is to make this page an archive of the Wax Museums. You can see all of the photos from this year by visiting the Illini Central website & mousing over the Mr. Burks Wax Museum tab. #WeAreIC #BeJimmy
