What an incredible start for the JMHS History Club! Yesterday, they had their first meeting, and it was a huge success! The awesome cosponsors, Mr. Ferrara and Mr. Katz, laid out some amazing plans for the year. They talked about potential field trips to local historic sites, the creation of a history newsletter, and gearing up for the National History Day writing contest!
The highlight? A presentation from Dr. Matt Laird about his fascinating work as an archeologist, along with another hands-on field trip opportunity!
Everyone left the meeting buzzing with excitement to explore and showcase the rich history of our local area. We can’t wait to see what’s next! #JMHSHistory #HistoryInTheMaking #ExploreThePast #NationalHistoryDay #Fredericksburg
