My Project

We are studying a unit on inequality in our country, specifically in regard to the 19th amendment. We want the students to have more knowledge about this important topic.

We hope that my arming our kids with background knowledge, we can inspire them to ensure that history does not repeat itself!

By having access to more books, they can learn more information about this important time in history. By reading about people who lived at that time and women who changed history, we hope to inspire our students and remind them that, they to, can make change!
