Living History Education Foundation

NCCS High School teacher, Gretchen Morris discovered this grant funded program during the spring of 2007. While participating in a week-long summer session, she quickly phoned Lynn McCarthy to suggest Lynn join the next session.

At the beginning of the 2007-2008 school year, Gretchen and Lynn invited several teachers from both the high school and middle school.

Through this grant/program, we teachers in the NCCS school district can use the LHEF resources at no cost. Period clothes, cookware, tents are all bundled and waiting to be used to help students "live history" instead of simply reading it.
