Hamden Hall Country Day School recently conducted its Middle School Signature Program, the Perennial Pines Party Campaign and Convention. Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro and state Sen. Len Fasano, a Hamden Hall alumnus, offered keynote addresses during the program’s culminating event, the mock political convention. Students pictured are, from left, Spencer McCleery, William Mollow, Liam Kohler, Claire Shemo, Caleb Bolden and Sam Judson. The week-long, experiential learning project focused on a fictitious third party, called the Perennial Pines Party, and immersed students in the American political process.
