About Us
Students at Nauset Regional Middle School in Nauset, Mass., are learning about the Wampanoag people, who have lived on the Cape for tens of thousands of years.
"Ultimately we want students to see that when they care for and steward the smallest creatures and the earth and the sky and the birds and the plants that they are actually protecting the things that are nourishing them," language arts teacher Lori Remillard tells the Cape Cod Times.
That's why Remillard has been awarded a $2,000 grant from Voya Financial's Unsung Heroes program to teach seventh- and eighth-graders about the interconnectedness of the land they live on.
She's also been teaching Earth Keepers, a course designed to teach students about the interconnectedness of the land, and Change Makers, which teaches eighth-graders about how to be good stewards of their environment.
"We all know these are middle school kids and they're doing a lot of identity work," Remillard says.
"They've got a lot of environmental messes to clean up."
