Education Committee Update Young Historians Coloring Program Brick Academy: May 2017 - What better way to educate children then by coloring! The Historical Society of the Somerset Hills (THSSH) has announced the group now offers the opportunity to have classes visit the Brick Academy to participate in a new history coloring program using a new history coloring book "Somerset Hills History Coloring Book." The program is being sponsored by the THSSH Education Committee, under the leadership of Margaret Skelly, a trustee and former teacher.
For Teachers, Parents, and Even High School Students The coloring program is just that, Teachers and parents are able to set up appointments to bring their children, called Young Historians, to the Brick Academy for a coloring exercise. Each young historian is provided a Somerset Hills History coloring book, crayons, and a brief overview of the images they will cover during the program. THSSH received a large number of "Somerset Hills History Coloring Book's" that were donated by T3 Consortium, a local consulting business based out of Bernards Township. To schedule a school room visit to the historic 1890's schoolhouse at the Brick Academy in the Basking Ridge section of Bernards Township, with a class (typically 3rd grade), or to find out when the next coloring program is open to the public, visit our Contact Us page and drop us an email. One of our volunteers will be in touch.
