SNAPSHOT MOMENT: FIELD TRIP FUN!

JCBA took to the seas with Living Classrooms Foundation to learn all
about the War of 1812 and the Battle of Baltimore! Students and staff
sailed the Inner Harbor aboard the Sigsbee, a 120 year-old sailboat, while
learning sailing skills, devising battle techniques, exploring oysters, and

taking in the sights of our beautiful harbor city.
