US History classes at ECHS, guided by Mrs. Martin and Mrs. Jensen, embarked on a virtual journey through the European and Pacific Theaters of World War II to prepare for their upcoming exam. The adventure began in Hawaii at Pearl Harbor, before moving on to the Beaches of Normandy and Pointe du Hoc in France. In Paris, they learned about Medal of Honor recipient Vernon J. Baker, then traveled to Los Alamos, New Mexico, to delve into the Manhattan Project and the Trinity Test of the atomic bomb. Their final destination was Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan, where they explored the impact of the atomic bombs that contributed to the conclusion of World War II. Throughout their trip, students had their passports stamped and jotted down fascinating details on postcards to send home.
