Florence students spent a day at the site of the 3-day battle of Gettysburg. toured Mount Vernon, saw George Washington’s grave, the National Archives, and saw the Declaration of Independence, The Constitution, and The Bill of Rights. The trip was truly an amazing learning experience & the kids had a great time.
Florence students had a jam-packed day full of fun activities, & we learned a lot from our local DC expert Rafel. They observed the changing of the guard @ the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, Arlington Cemetery,the 9/11 Pentagon, Lincoln, Korean War & Iwo Jima Memorials, The White House , The Reflection Pool, & the Washington Monument. #GoFloCats

Florence Students had the opportunity to hear from Janice Farmer of Waukesha, WI, sharing a first-hand account of a tornado encountered by her family in the Niagara area in 1984. Her visit was part of students’ meteorology study & came just in time for Tornado Awareness Week.
Florence students visited the Washington Monument, the Capital, the Smithsonian of Natural History, WWII, FDR, Martin Luther King Jr, and Jefferson Memorials. They also got to see the Library of Congress and the Supreme Court buildings. They had a great first day!!
