A Special Back-to-School Event: Schooling with Uncle Sam-August 10, 2024 at the Cherry Hills Library

 

During the Month of August, patrons of the Cherry Hills Library will be able to see artifacts from many of the Defense Department schools worldwide. On August 10th, 2024, there will be a special program about the almost 80-year-old school system. Dr. Allen Dale Olson will share the history and some of his memories spanning his decades-long involvement with the school system.

If you taught at or attended the Defense Department schools, we invite you to join us for the program. We’d love to hear your stories and share some of our anthology stories sent in by former DoDEA/DODDS teachers and students, as well as answer questions from the audience. Let’s have a mini all-schools reunion at the library!

If you are a New Mexico teacher or in a military student liaison program, please join us to exchange ideas on better supporting military children at your schools.
We hope you will join the friendly folks from the Museum of the American Military Family for an interesting book reading, discussion, and Q&A session.
