The audience erupted with laughter and applause Thursday as Parsons Middle School students presented the play "The 10 Best/Worst Things About Middle School." Under the direction of Barb McCoy, students characterized the best /worst years of your life - the friends, memories, life lessons, and of course the inevitably haunting embarrassments that leave emotional scars for years to come. Kudos for a great performance!
