About: Pathways to Freedom and Friendship
Two hundred fifty-five students grades 6 – 12 throughout the state of Connecticut will be breaking down district, regional, racial, gender, socioeconomics, and cultural barriers in the “Pathways to Freedom and Friendship” program. “Pathways to Freedom and Friendship” has been a successful interdistrict grant that has been in existence for eight years. This statewide program has had continuous support from dedicated teachers from Hartford, Danbury, Newington, East Lyme, Bridgeport, and Lebanon. New teacher recruitment has expanded the program into Region 4 in Essex. The project will continue to partner 10 urban and suburban classes for the purpose of learning about the Amistad Incident.
