Big thanks to the Hampton Roads Naval Museum for bringing the past to life and making history interactive! 🙌 #HandsOnHistory #VietnamWar #USNavy #HamptonRoadsNavalMuseum #8thGradeLearning

This week, our 7th graders took an exciting field trip to the Virginia Living Museum! Students had an unforgettable time exploring animals from across the state and diving into the diverse ecosystems that make Virginia so unique—from the mountains to the coast and everything in between.
They learned, explored, and discovered so much more than we could have imagined! Check out these amazing moments captured during the trip. 📸✨
