Revolutionary Rhode Island: Professional Development Series for Educators

As we turn the page into 2025, we’re even closer to celebrating our nation’s Semiquincentennial. The Rhode Island 250 Commission and the Rhode Island Historical Society are hosting a professional development series for educators from January to June 2025, exploring Rhode Island’s role in America’s founding.

Each session, held once a month across the state, will highlight key aspects of Rhode Island’s history. January’s session, “The Birthplace of Religious Freedom: How Far Have We Come?” will examine Rhode Island’s contribution to religious freedom, on January 30th at 4:00 pm at the Aldrich House in Providence.
