10 June 2020: The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History, one of the most important centers for U.S. history in the country -- they are the folks who brought our students to see Hamilton! -- is opening their summer school to students and families for free this summer. For students who are looking for something challenging to do this summer that also will help you build your resume for college should click on the image above to go to the Gilder Lehrman site for information about the courses and free registration. All students are encouraged, but AP US History students are strongly advised to look into this.
We are America, a book created by students from Jessica Lander’s course Seminar on Diversity in America (SOC.4570), has been featured in media across the country. See here for a sample of coverage and here for the website. Ms. Lander and her students have started a movement that is now found in 23 different states in 36 teachers’ classrooms.
