Forging History & Community in Bethlehem – 2018<\/b><\/p>\n

In an updated version from our 2016 video, field trips make the curriculum come alive for students. With the Foundation for the BASD’s support, the BASD is in the multi-year process of establishing curriculum-based field trips for each elementary grade (approximately 1,000 students per grade). The two-hour field trip titled, Forging History and Community in Bethlehem takes BASD 5th graders to the Steel Stacks Campus to reinforce class concepts related to our nation’s\/city’s industrial heritage as well as instill a new generation’s pride in their city. The interaction among the students, teachers, and organizations so closely associated with the past and present of the city will promote a “common bond” among diverse populations of Bethlehem.<\/p>\n
