Future Ready Fridays: IMPACT Gateway Arch Field Trip
The IMPACT program took a field trip to visit the Gateway Arch on Sept. 18. The trip included exploring and learning in the museum, and soaring to the top of the Arch at 630 feet.
Students in IMPACT have been discovering the world of Western Expansion, and using the tools, information, and evidence presented in the Arch exhibits, they furthered their understanding of their seminar essential question, “How does the migration of people and the physical expansion of the U.S. expand or limit opportunities for individuals and groups of people?”
IMPACT students are future-ready, connecting in-class learning with real-world experiences, such as field trips and service projects.
