Over 180 students explored New Netherland and learned how the Dutch have had a lasting impact on America's culture and heritage, particularly related to three Dutch traditions that continue to influence American culture today: Religious freedom; Freedom of speech; New York as a center of world trade.Students conducted original research and used their findings to develop their essays.
