Providence Students

VISIT WASHINGTON, D.C.

05.06.11 Neighborhood resident and eighth-grader KK Pedigo reflects on her travel experience in this beautifully written recap: “While visiting Washington, D.C. early in April, the eighth-grade class of Providence Christian School realized how important and real history is. Through museums and monuments, we began to understand how fortunate we are today. ... While walking along the Vietnam Memorial, we saw the solemn list of soldiers’ names, who died fighting, and we were touched by the numbers of people who died for our country.” newadVoCate newsletters
