Student Local History Project
Commemorate the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution and the 250th anniversary of the founding of the Republic of Vermont with us!
The Vermont Historical Society is hosting is a statewide, place-based learning opportunity for K-12 Vermont students. Educators and students will study local history in partnership with local historical societies to uncover the history in their backyard.
All In Vermont calls upon Vermont students to study Vermont’s inhabitants, notable events, industry, movements, and culture that demonstrate the state’s continued evolution since the revolution. Vermont’s landscape and waterways inform its collective history, and this project promotes community engagement with this knowledge. Through inquiry-based research, students will uncover the enduring history that makes their home unique.
Their final product will be shared on the interactive ArcGIS StoryMaps housed on the Vermont History Explorer website. What will fellow Vermonters, and site visitors from beyond our borders, learn about our brave, little state?
How many of our 252 towns and cities will be represented by the end of 2027?
