The United States Department of Education has awarded the East Brunswick Public School district a three-year professional development grant, assisting school teachers to teach substantive American History to their students.  The Overcoming Obstacles to Liberty (T.O.O.L.) Fellowship will deepen teachers' comprehension of rich American history through the use of exciting historical narratives and primary sources, Along with the study of historical events, issues, and contemporary interpretations.  The T.O.O.L. Fellowship will investigate traditional American history in a systematic, chronological, and thematic fashion.  Fellows will use these methods when teaching, so students can more fully comprehend this rich American tradition.

East Brunswick has collaborated with historical and educator, Dr. Kevin T. Brady and the American Institute for History Education (AIHE) to direct the Fellowship.
