4th & 5th Grade Field Trip

Fourth and fifth graders attended the Battle of Collierville Reenactment School Day at Piperton Hills Ranch.


Students were guided around the encampment by experienced Civil War soldier historians and stopped at each of ten “stations.” There were presentations by cavalrymen with their horses, union and confederate infantry, cannon-firing by the artillery, medical “surgery” by the Civil War doctor, visits to the displaced ladies and children in a refugee camp, music by an authentic Civil War band and much more.
