Welcome to the Quaker Hill website.
At Quaker Hill, we cherish every child every day! The photos above capture Mrs. Willard's second grade students and their partners from Charles Barnum Elementary School in Groton at the New London Public Library. This is just one of several occasions in which these children gather together. They are participating in a grant from LEARN called Authors and Amigos. This particular program creates a learning society among five school districts in southeastern Connecticut. It offers a common place where 175 students in second and third grade are challenged to read, write, and think critically within the language arts framework. During their visit to the library, the children listened to a story called Shadowville, read by a member of Flock Theater, and learned shadowing techniques. They also had the opportunity to create their own puppets and performed a puppet show.
We hope you will visit our website often to find out what makes Quaker Hill a special place to learn and grow!
