| July 1998, Communications Contact: (512) 891-0630 | WICHITA, KANSAS CHOSEN AS SITE FOR THE AMERICAN OVERSEAS SCHOOLS HISTORICAL
PARK, ARCHIVES AND MUSEUM
LITCHFIELD PARK, Ariz.-- The City of Wichita, Kansas has been selected as the site of the American Overseas Schools Historical Park by the membership of >the American Overseas Schools Historical Society (AOSHS) at its annual meeting in Minneapolis on July 11th. The Wichita site was selected through a process which included soliciting proposals from 14 selected metropolitan areas in the United States; followed by site visits by a nine member committee to the three cites best qualified to have the park in their area. "The City of Wichita was a clear choice in the site selection competition," said Dr. Tom Drysdale, American Overseas Schools Historical Society and Archives director. "The five-plus acre, downtown river front site made available by the City of Wichita in the heart of their outstanding 'Museums on the River' cultural district is superb. Additionally, the show of support from city government, Wichita State University, the Wichita Public School System and local business and industry has been very strong." "Wichita is very excited and honored to be selected as home for the American Overseas Schools Historical Park. The park and museum will be a wonderful addition to the Museums on the River district, " said Wichita Mayor Bob Knight. Plans call for the site to include a landscaped historical park with a visitor's center, existing archives, a museum and memorials of overseas schools, alumni associations, educators and students. The selection of this site will begin a process of development, starting with the dedication of the facility by the winter of 2001. According to Dr. Drysdale, "The origin, evolution and development of American education abroad is a remarkable human and educational success story that is finally being recorded. Graduate students at home and abroad, research scholars, historians, writers and educators, American and foreign, have expressed much interest in the project. All will benefit when the park, archives and museum are officially opened to the public." The American Overseas Schools Archives (AOSA) was first established on the campus of Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff in 1989. The AOSA is dedicated to preserving the history and memorabilia of the kindergarten through grade 12 education of an estimated 4 million American children who attended more than 900 American overseas schools over the past 150 years." In 1995 the American Overseas Historical Society was incorporated as a non- profit IRS 501(c)(3) organization. At this time the archives were moved to their temporary home in Goodyear, Arizona. The selection of Wichita concludes a search that was begun in 1996 for a permanent home for the archives and a museum in a historical park setting. |
