Our 9th grade American Voices students had an unforgettable experience yesterday on their field trip to the Henry Ford Museum! From exploring powerful moments in American history to making real-world connections to what we’ve been learning in class, it was a day full of discovery and inspiration. The experience didn’t stop there—students also enjoyed a cultural dining experience at Benihana in Dearborn, where they stepped outside their comfort zones and experienced something new together. A huge thank you to Inspiration Alcona and the Lincoln Lions for making this opportunity possible through their generous grant support. We are so grateful for community partners who invest in our students’ learning beyond the classroom!
