Sharon A-Z

Sharon A-Z is modeled after the well-known internet resource "Wikipedia" we plan to use this feature to connect people to the town of Sharon, its history and its culture. At the present, Sharon A-Z is just getting started but in the near future we will be expanding its offerings.

Our initial Sharon A-Z project is a joint effort with Mrs. Klish's 7th Grade Computer Class where students were asked to research and write about their family history and offer some insight on why they came to Sharon and how they feel about living here.
