Framingham through Time-November 2023

On Tuesday, November 21st, our intermediate-level class visited the Framingham History Center for an interactive exploration of Framingham's history. The class learned from the Nipmuc Indigenous community to today. After this activity, the students talked about their countries' traditions and how they continue practicing them in the United States. It was moving to hear their stories!
