Resources for Keeping Your Historic School

Speed Street School, VicksburgKaitlin brought up in her comment about President Obama’s rather disparaging reference to historic schools that the National Trust has done a lot of work in the past decade or so to help local citizens talk to their school boards about their historic schools. One publication that is helpful is “Why Johnny Can’t Walk to School”, published in its latest edition in 2002. Another is “Historic Neighborhood Schools Deliver 21st Century Educations”. Find these publications, along with others on the Trust’s page dedicated to historic schools.
