Working in concert with Native American education specialists and archeologists, we are coordinating with the aftershool teachers at Neighborhood House Charter School and the Friends of the Public Garden to expand upon our current curriculum around early inhabitants and their culture. Students from our partner schools have worked with us to prepare educational graphics for the site and informational brochures to be available during the Fishweir Building Event.
