Students from Edwards Middle School in Charlestown paid the Graduate School of Education a visit last Friday, Jan. 19, for a day of questions and answers, tours, and insight into college life. Sponsored by Project IF (Inventing the Future), a research and practice partnership centered at GSE, the annual visit is part of the initiative's mission of educational mentoring, future-oriented counseling, and optimum development for children of low-income backgrounds.
