It’s not often that teachers tell their students to clown around.

Kids at School 2 in Oceanside not only were told to clown around, but got to show off their new found circus skills for their friends and family at the school’s annual Circus Show on April 15, held at the Oceanside Middle School gym.

Students juggled, jumped, tossed and spun the night away. The show, along with the popcorn that was available, made it seem like audience members were really at the circus.
