The Advent School on NBC10
Advent School Third Graders are exploring American history through the lens of marginalized communities. The African Meeting House is an incredible resource for our students, offering deeply enriching content just a short walk from our campus. Our students stand in the same room as Frederick Douglass, see an actual copy of one of the nation’s most influential abolitionist newspapers, The Liberator, and ask big questions, like “what does it mean to be free?”
Advent School students feel strongly that ALL kids should have the opportunity to visit the Museum of African American History. So when they learned that its federal funding had been cut, they sprang into action, using their collective voice to advocate for this important piece of Boston history.
We are so proud of our Third Graders, and we were honored to be included in NBC10’s recent news story on community efforts to support the MAAH.
