Sweet Clara and the Freedom Quilt Presentation

Today, students followed Clara's story of bravery and ingenuity that led her to create a work of art to be used as a map to the Underground Railroad and ultimately to freedom in Canada. The students participated and appreciated this journey back in time and learned the role that Canada played in freeing thousands of oppresses slaves. Through story telling and imagination this historic time period came alive for students.
