Adopt an Artifact! is a unique program offered by the St. Charles History Museum that allows people to “adopt” various artifacts from the Museum’s Collection. Artifacts may be adopted for up to a year and can be renewed.
Back to School time is a great time to take a look back at the history of some of the schools (and educators) in St. Charles. Earlier this week we shared some history of Anderson Elementary School. As we mentioned in that post Anderson, Davis, and Richmond schools were all built in the same year using the same floor plans to save money. Today we thought we would share some history of Davis and Richmond schools. Since we shared the information on the buildings yesterday, we will focus on the women these schools are named for in today’s post.
Today marks the first day back to school for students in STC District 303. To celebrate the start of another school year we thought we would look back at some of the schools in our district and share a brief history of each. Starting with Anderson Elementary seemed like a logical choice and so here is a short history of the Amelia T. Anderson Elementary School.
*Special tours may be scheduled ahead of time for any day of the week, including Monday
