September 17 is federally recognized as Constitution Day in the United States. Constitution Day commemorates the creation and signing of the U.S. Constitution. Each year in the Westport Public Schools, students learn about the Constitution and U.S. citizenship in social studies classrooms through a broad range of civics lessons, activities, and discussions. To learn more about Constitution Day, visit the Center for Civic Education.
Tyler Rockwell, Staples High School '24 and current NYU freshman film student, seized the opportunity last year to work closely with JoAnn Inserra to create an engaging WPS Tools for Schools video that the EPA is currently featuring on its Local Indoor Air Quality Champions webpage.
In an effort to outline education plans, get students excited, and foster ongoing learning beyond the classroom, Natalie Carrignan, WPS Director of Technology, collaborated with representatives from her team of teachers last summer to develop and deploy curriculum storyboards for K-2 Information and Technology Literacy (ITL) Courses.
