Sixth graders host immigrant panel discussion

Sixth graders hosted their annual immigrant panel discussions today, concluding a social studies unit on immigration and urbanization. Students invited members of their families who have immigrated to the United States to participate in a panel discussion and share their “coming to America” stories. Eight relatives of sixth graders volunteered, and students prepared a series of questions for the panelists, who represented Venezuela, United Arab Emirates, Cape Verde, Albania, South Africa, Haiti, China, and Germany.
