VIA CHARLOTTE OBSERVER

The popular civil rights tour of the South that teacher Larry Bosc organizes at East Mecklenburg High School has an unusual twist this year.

Ten students at Charlotte Latin School will join 37 East Meck students for the bus trip, which runs today through Sunday and will hit some of the most significant sites of the nation’s civil rights struggle. Their teachers say the idea is to bridge the public- and private-school gap a bit, and allow students to learn from each other during the ride through history.
