Nancy is pleased to welcome the 5th
graders in Ms. Cindy Maranzano’s class
(pictured above) as the current hosts. They
attend Vance Village School in New Britain.
The students are participating in a “MicroSociety,”
a life-skills curriculum that simulates
business, service, and government ventures while
encouraging students to become active in their
communities. Taking a hands-on approach to
learning more about the function and history of
the U.S. government, these 5th
graders developed their very own Constitution
and Bill of Rights for the MicroSociety.
The students have generously contributed to the
Student Center their projects comparing the U.S.
and Vance Village School constitutions. You can
see samples of their projects by clicking on the
below links:
Teachers interested in
having their class host the student page in the
future should
email Nancy and
include their daytime contact information.
For even more
information, please
visit the student pages at
The White House and the
U.S. House of Representatives.
