Set the Scene:
Today Bryn Mawr Elementary is the most diverse school in the area. This means that students of all different backgrounds can learn together. However, before 1943 Mexican American students were separated from white students. How would your education be different if you could only learn with students of your own race?Vocabulary:
Civic Engagement (n.) the process where citizens work to make a difference in their communities. It means working to make your community a better place through both political and non-political processes like voting, protesting, or running for a political office.
