State House

On May 1st the third graders went on a special field trip to the Massachusetts State House. We went on a guided tour and learned many interesting facts about Massachusetts and the State House. During our tour, we learned about the Hall of Flags, the Great Hall, House of Representatives and Senate Chamber. Senator DiDomenico spent a great deal of time with us. He explained what his job was like as a senator and answered all of the students questions. He also arranged for us to see Governor Baker's office!

Thank you to the Giunta family, Senator DiDomenico and his staff for arranging the tour, providing lunch and making this a special experience for the third graders!


Marissa got to sit in the Senate President's chair and pass a law! 

We are under the Golden Dome.
Ask your child why the the flags were hung in the Great Hall.

Going out on the balcony was a special privilege!
This is Governor Baker's desk.
