California History Explored During Grade 3 Field Trip to Oakland Museum

In mid-November, grade 3 students headed to the East Bay to visit the Oakland Museum of California (OMCA).

The OMCA opened its doors more than 40 years ago, bringing together art, history and natural sciences under one roof. The museum’s collection now comprises more than 1.8 million objects, including works of art, historical artifacts, natural specimens and photographs.

Following an engaging morning tour, the students, who were accompanied by teacher Kathy Ferretti, enjoyed a relaxing lunch on the museum lawn before heading back to school.
