"We Will Walk in Her Steps" is the fifth in a series of walks which have been developed under the auspices of the Boston Women's Heritage Trail by teachers and students in the Boston Public Schools. This walk was developed by second graders in Vera Johnson's class at the Joyce Kilmer School in West Roxbury. The Trail honors women whose contributions have enhanced the community and the quality of life in West Roxbury. It was developed to teach the students Community Service Learning through biographies of women residents. The students also learned how children and women lived "then and now". If you are
interested in developing a trail in your neighborhood, please contact us. We'd be glad to help!
