Memorial Day was recognized this past weekend across the United States, and for many of us, discussed this week in our classrooms.

SCHOOL TRIP SPOTLIGHT: Gettysburg National Military Park
Even those who know little of the Civil War have heard of the formative Battle of Gettysburg. In July 1863, in a small Pennsylvania hamlet, the Union Army successfully countered the last Confederate invasion of the North.
Today, it is a place that memorializes the challenges of living out our nation’s founded principles, making Gettysburg a popular stop for school groups visiting the historic East Coast.
