Making History

As a follow up to the School History Walks at Rogers and the Mural Project at Strawberry Vale in 2017-2018, Mr. Richey worked with students over the 2018-2019 school year to identify the things about their school that matter most to them. Last Fall, students brainstormed ideas and created self-portraits and enjoyed a visit from local storyteller, Robert "Lucky" Budd, who spoke about his work and the value of sharing our stories as a way of recording history

​Last Winter, students shared their school experiences through photography, art, and poetry...all in an effort to add to our schools' incredible histories!

​These documents were brought together in the form of a big book featuring full page spreads of each student. 

​Learn more about your school’s history at at Rogers and Strawberry Vale schools and come to the library to check out the book we've created: This Place: Our School Story! The story continues this year as we explore new ways of sharing our stories and making history at our school.
