The Hall at Patriot Place Presented by Raytheon Education!
Education
- Background – One of the clearly defined missions of The Hall is a comprehensive, integrated and relevant educational program that adheres to Massachusetts frameworks and national standards in many of the published criteria. The Hall has a team of classroom educators that have volunteered to assist with the development of our standards-based experience designed to benefit teachers and students alike. We know our education program will be an extension of the classroom in a fun and entertaining setting for students in grades 3-12. Raytheon is also involved in the education program and together with The Hall, is interested in promoting math and science education. Raytheon has installed an interactive game show on the third floor of The Hall, called In the Numbers. The game gives guests a chance to compete in football related math and science questions in a fun way. Raytheon has its own education site at www.mathmovesu.com and Inside the Numbers helps promote that interactive website.

The buses pulled up to The Hall at Patriot
Place Monday morning around 9:30,
carrying some 200 8th-grade students
from Hanover (Mass.) Middle School.
Each had read Tedy Bruschi’s book, Never
Give Up, as part of their academic support
period – a 30-minute window each school
day when the kids are supposed to read a
book of their choosing.
But recently, their English teacher, Martha
Stamper (a self-proclaimed die-hard
Bruschi fan), suggested they all read the
Patriots linebacker’s account of his stroke,
subsequent recovery, and return to the NFL.
“Many times, it’s a struggle to get them to sit down and read,” Stamper explained. “They have a really busy schedule and often need that break in between classes. Sometimes they just want to chat.”
