What an incredible way to bring classroom lessons to life!
The AP Human Geography students got a firsthand look at urban development and renewal practices in St. Louis. Last Thursday, Mrs. Womack and Mrs. Criblez drove their students to St. Louis where they first examined the Cortex Innovation Community, contemporary urban redevelopment along Duncan Avenue. This community is a multimillion-dollar adaptive multi-tenant reuse of historic commercial spaces using sustainable development practices. Students not only examined the sustainable design features, but also were able to discuss elements of third places. They traveled to Union Station and met their tour guide from the Missouri History Museum. He lead them on a walking tour of the area surrounding Union Station and shared the history of the Mill Creek Valley neighborhood and the Chestnut Valley section. The final stop was a visit to an ethnic community, The Hill. Here students chatted with neighborhood volunteers at the Neighborhood Center and examined the beautiful architecture and history of St. Ambrose Catholic Church.
