Topics have been chosen, and we look forward to welcoming the students back for filming!

The Sutherland students are hard at work on their videos. The topics were chosen in late March, and the students will return to Monticello in late May for filming.

The 4th Annual Journey Through Hallowed Ground Partnership Conference is set for June 22-23 in Charlottesville, Virginia.  The videos will be premeired during this conference.

Topics will include:

  • Jack Jouett’s ride – Movie 1  - The importance of  staying calm and making good choices
  • Jack Jouett’s ride – Movie 2 – How would our history change without Jack Jouett’s ride?  Would Des Moines boast an Eiffel Tower?
  • My Crib –  Students will focus on uniqueness of Jefferson’s home
  • Thriller —  Do values die with each generation?
  • Jefferson’s gadgets –  We all have a specific purpose and should celebrate it!
