NEW BEDFORD The young Shakespeares of Hayden-McFadden Elementary School participated in a virtual poetry slam on April 29.
Fifth-grade teacher Alyssa Baldwin received 21 poems from students grades 3 through 5 along with hand-drawn artwork. Upper Academy Assistant Principal Amy Huston and Baldwin organized the poetry slam with a total of 12 students presenting their work to classmates and teachers.
