Braving the cold winds in the Big Apple

From Sunday 4/22/12 to Wednesday 4/25/12, students from Martha's Vineyard Regional High School braved the unexpected cool and rainy weather during the visit to New York City. After taking in some sights in Manhattan, students and teachers Ms. Weintraub and Ms. Holter spend some time shadowing students and staff at the High School of Economics & Finance. Students from both schools were able to experience various facets of NYC's history with a visit to 9/11 Memorial as well as experience immigrant life at the Tenement Museum. Everyone bundled up for a cold but fun night at CitiField to watch the Mets. Once the skies dried up, our visitors from the Vineyard had time to explore the African Burial Grounds and have a traditional fest in Chinatown.
