To better understand their Puerto Rican students, Philly teachers travel to Caribbean

In January, the four teachers received a $10,000 grant from the Texas-based nonprofit Fund for Teachers that supported a 10-day trip to interview teachers, academic experts, and museum researchers in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and in various locations in Puerto Rico: Fajardo, Culebra, El Yunque, Las Carolinas, and San Juan.
