jen writes "Four Germantown sites will embark on a new educational project designed to bring students from four area schools into the world of historic museums. Stenton, Cliveden, Wyck and the Johnson Houses will offer a curriculum to 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders at Pickett, Longstreth, Jenks, and Houston. Students will be introduced to each house through classroom study and then visit each site on a fact-finding mission. Students will write about their visits as youth reporters. The History Hunters Program aims to weave the individual histories of the sites together into a historic and social fabric that spans from the Revolutionary War through the Civil War."
