MONONA — The seventh and eighth grade students at Immaculate Heart of Mary School in Monona walked solemnly down the middle aisle and out of the sanctuary of their church last week after portraying living Stations of the Cross.
The school has been acting out the stations — visual descriptions of the events leading to Christ’s crucifixion — in front of other students in the school and the community for at least seven years, according to teachers’ estimates. It’s a tradition that is also carried out in some other Catholic schools in the area.
