More About Allegany High School Exhibit Opens
The Allegany Museum is pleased to announce the opening of a special exhibition entitled, “Allegany: The American High School Experience”. This will take place at Allegany Museum from July 2-31, 2022.
The exhibit is fully researched, developed and designed by current Allegany High School students enrolled in the Historical Research Methods course. The exhibit will reflect the history of the American High School.
Allegany High School mirrors the history of public education in the U.S. The exhibit will explore the history of sports, band, student life and other aspects of the high school experience. The exhibit will also feature an exact replica of the Sedgwick Street building built in Legos, a unique video that embodies the emotion of high school through the years, and much more. Artifacts donated from members of the community will also be on display.
"The multidisciplinary skills demonstrated by my students on this particular project are nothing less than spectacular. This year's group of historical research methods students were the perfect blend of critical, analytical and creative thinking for tackling such a large endeavor. From my perspective as a teacher, the curation of this exhibit is the best demonstration of utilizing all types of students' skills at the highest level of professional applications." Says Allegany High School Historical Research Methods Teacher, Brian White.
A Public Opening will take place Saturday, July 9, 2022, and is part of the Campers Class Reunion Weekend.
