Junior U.S. History students from Evangelical Christian School visited the Koreshan Unity Settlement
Junior U.S. History students from Evangelical Christian School visited the
Koreshan Unity Settlement in Estero on Tuesday December 1. Mrs. Scoone
provides the students with an opportunity to experience "living history"
first hand by visiting the Koreshan historical settlement after studying
the Utopian Societies of the 1800s. The Koreshan Unity Settlement was
founded in 1894 by Cyrus R. Teed. The community was founded on the ideas
of communal living and property, religious and scientific theories, and
the communistic goal of everyone working for the good of all, or a
classless utopia--a perfect society.
Evangelical Christian School admits students of any race, color or ethnic origin and grants to them all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded to or made available to all students at the school.
