Sense of Pride
Sense of Pride is a program designed to teach 4th graders in the Bristol Warren Regional School District about their towns. First introduced in a single classroom in Bristol in 2000, it is now implemented in every 4th grade classroom in the district. The program also expanded its focus from architecture and the built environment, to include presentations on town history and the ecology of surrounding waters.
Rhode Island’s adoption of new Social Studies Standards in 2023 prompted Mosaico to reimagine Sense of Pride to align more closely to the new standards. Popular elements like the downtown walking tour continue, alongside new geography based map sessions, and an increased focus on civic education.
Sense of Pride is funded through grants and sponsorships. You can support Sense of Pride by making a donation.
