Metro Mentors is underway. ❤️

Today, our juniors and seniors met with their 9th grade mentees at Wooster Square Park for the Metro Mentor kickoff.
Circling up is foundational at Metro—a way to make space for connection, conversation, reflection, and community.
We’re excited to see these relationships grow as our upperclassmen mentor, encourage, and support our newest Metro students throughout the year.

Students and staff at Worthington Hooker School welcomed Yale Folklorico to the schoolwide Hispanic Heritage Celebration Friday. 

During our September Professional Learning day, New Haven Public Schools Social Studies teachers had the opportunity to hear from several of our community partners, including the New Haven Museum, Lost in New Haven, the The Connecticut Democracy Center, Yale University, and others about the resources and experiences available to our students and teachers.

These partnerships help us connect social studies learning beyond the classroom through authentic, place-based experiences that allow students to engage with history, civics, and their own community in meaningful ways.

The Social Studies department will continue to leverage these relationships throughout the year to create more opportunities for New Haven students to investigate their community, engage with local resources, and experience social studies in action.

Thank you to all of our community partners for sharing their time, expertise, and opportunities with our teachers!
