Mr. David Hanna's Middle Ages class visited the Cloisters and the Cathedral of St. John the Divine this week. Mr. Hanna shares that these students are the first to take the new English elective course. They have been studying medieval monastic life, Romanesque and Gothic architecture, and going on pilgrimages. Their pilgrimage took them from TriBeCa to Fort Tryon Park and Amsterdam Avenue.

She also commented that the student were at the level of college English and Writing that she taught at one time. and asked good questions; a testimonial to Stuyvesant high school and our teachers.
