What Would Your Students Project On Their School?

Pack Up (Thy) Sea Chest!


"Practice thy own religion
and ye will be free.
T'was King James
Rule to attend thee royal
Church of England but ye shant.
(Thy must) board thee ship Columbus."

Thirteen brave souls have sold all of their earthly belongings, packed up their most precious valuables and have agreed to travel to the New World.

Lured by pleas of help, persuaded by visions of new beginnings and religious freedom from the tyranny of the King, many students have gone above and beyond and declared their intention to establish a new colony in the intermediate hallway.

Currently debating the Mayflower Compact during class, our rugged risk-takers are learning how difficult it is to find enough common ground to rule themselves.

Will the new colonists succeed in their voyage to the New World, or suffer the same fate as the Speedwell?

Only time will tell.
