[Lincolnparkdc] Launch + Call for Photographs (Story of Our Schools at Payne Elementary)

[Mark Jordan]

Neighbors:

Payne Elementary School just launched an exciting project with a local
nonprofit that will allow teaches, students, and professional museum staff
explore and document the history of the school. The project will result in
a permanent museum exhibit at the school.    See the e-mail below for more
details, but in short.

If either you personally or someone you know has any of the following:

   - Old photos and/or Payne Elementary memorabilia;
   - Old photos of Hill East (they will go to the Library of Congress and
   other archives but are looking for personal photos);
   - Personal stories to share about the neighborhood and/or school (they
   will also research the Overbeck HIstory Project records).

Please connect with Jen Harris, who runs the program, at the e-mail below.

Thanks for your help!

Mark Jordan

We are so excited to work with the students at Payne!

*We officially launched at our third school site, Payne Elementary!*

Two of Payne’s finest, Mrs. Stokes and Ms. Brown, will guide the students as
they participate in primary research, visit local archives and museums,
interview long-time area residents, hear from guest speakers, and much
more! Acting as ambassadors, the students will share their knowledge with
the entire school community by visiting classrooms and leading activities
for students.

By the end of the school year, the students will have gathered enough
information to produce a museum-quality exhibit that will remain
permanently installed on school grounds. The exhibit will deepen the
community’s understanding of the history of the school community, inform
and excite prospective families and residents, enhance parent and family
engagement, and create engaging learning tools.

*Want to help with the project?*

We are currently looking for people who have the following:

   - Old photographs and/or memorabilia of Payne Elementary School
   - Old photographs of the Hill East neighborhood
   - Stories to share about the neighborhood and/or school
   - Volunteer time to help with school-wide events related to the project

Please reply to this email if you would like to participate in the project,
and stay tuned for updates as our young historians uncover the history of
Payne Elementary!

With much appreciation,
Jen Harris
