WFS 7th and 8th graders hit the road this week with trips to Washington, D.C. and Philadelphia.  
7th graders spent the day exploring the National Japanese-American Memorial to Patriotism and the Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C., as well as various other monuments, which connected directly to their study of World War II and the Holocaust in both their English and social science classes.

8th grade students toured the Museum of the American Revolution, learning not only about the events of the Revolution but also about the role of African Americans, Indigenous people, and women in helping the colonists win the war. Later in the day, students spent time in the Independence Mall area, taking turns presenting research they had conducted about the historical significance and architecture of famous landmarks in the area, including The Liberty Bell Center, Betsy Ross House, and Old City Hall.
