Seventh and eighth grade students received a virtual visit from Representative Pease as he gave a presentation on Massachusetts state government and provided the students with an opportunity to ask questions.
“This was great! Our eighth-grade class just finished a unit on state government,” says WVS history teacher David Castonguay. “Reading about how governments work is one thing, but listening to someone talk about their job and how it is done is more relatable.”
"It was great seeing how engaged the students were as we talked about what I do and how our state government functions" says State Representative Kelly Pease
