The 6th grade visits Riverside Cemetery each October as a way to kick off local studies and to tour the historic and beautiful cemetery. Students are given GPS units and they work together to follow clues to find the graves of eight local luminaries. Once at the graveside, students hear stories about these leaders and their contributions to our city. Then, they solve a puzzle and move on to the next clue. We have been taking this field trip for about 4 or 5 years now, and every year it's a big hit!
