CHS Students Take Special Black History Month Field Trip

Students at St. Croix Central High School recently took a Black History Month field trip to learn about the history of St. Croix. Stops along the way brought them to Government House in Christiansted, where they enjoyed a special meet-and-greet with Gov. Kenneth E. Mapp. From there, students toured Fort Christensvaern and learned about the structure's history during slavery.
