🇺🇸 250 Years in the Making! 🇺🇸
Mrs. Freyer’s U.S. History and HIS 108/AP U.S. History students are kicking off a year-long history project leading up to America’s 250th birthday in July 2026.
Each month, students dive into a 25-year era of United States history to research and create a one-page showcase on a significant person, document, law/court case, place, or event from that time.
📜 August Spotlight (1776-1800):
Take a look at August's amazing one-pagers—our first step in exploring the stories that shaped our nation! Follow along all year as we journey through 250 years of American history, one era at a time.
Congratulations to the following students for having their one-page showcase chosen for the 1776-1800 timeline:
Rihanna Montanaro - Molly Pitcher
Kameron Witt - Whiskey Rebellion
Lexy Dean - Bill of Rights
Dylan Madden - Cumberland Gap
Hannah Bennett - Thomas Paine
Emily Lane - Boston Tea Party
McKenzie Stewart - The Residence Act of 1790
Bella Wagers - Bill of Rights
