Students at Martin Avenue Elementary School recently enjoyed the circus arts unit in physical education classes. It is an annual tradition for students in grades K-6, led by teacher Michael Weiner. 

In the gym, students were spinning plates, balancing feathers and catching balls in nets. They learned how to use juggling sticks known as Lunastix, and launched large you-yos into the air to try and catch them on a string. Some students, and even Principal Dr. Michael Yannucci, tried out stilt walking.
