On Saturday we visited the Mosaic Templars Cultural Center, explored the River Market for lunch, and then participated in a National Park Service tour of Central High School. We were captivated by Ranger Rebecca’s telling of the story of the Little Rock Nine. Students were surprised to discover that the school is still a functioning school! Afterwards we spoke with Ms. Cameron, the librarian, and with Dr. Newkirk, a history teacher at Central High School. We stopped for an ice cream break before heading to Memphis.
A World Awaits You!
