Patriots' Day


In Massachusetts, Monday April 15th, 2019, will be a holiday from school and work.  We celebrate Patriots' Day on the 3rd Monday in April to commemorate the beginning of the Revolutionary War and the battles of Lexington and Concord. Students learn more about the difficulties of the Revolutionary War and calculate the rates of:

  • Paul Revere's ride

  • The British crossing Boston to Cambridge by boat.

  • The British marching through the night to reach Lexington and Concord.
