The program has been delayed due to the budget. If your child visits any
site, just have your child get the stamp and I will put in their passport when
St. Mary's receives them. You can go on the Delaware County Historical
Society for a list of sites.
The fourth grade is participating in the Delaware County "Passport to
History Program". The "Kick Off Assembly" for the Passport to History
Program will be held in September. This program is an excellent
way for your child to see history come alive and learn about the history in
Delaware County.
