Asset 34- Cultural Competence... Tell us what you think? We would love to hear your reactions to this event.

Student Service-Learning Project “History in the Making”

Hosted by the Historical & Cultural Society of Clay County

The Historical and Cultural Society of Clay County (formally the Heritage Hjemkomst Interpretive Center and the Clay County Museum and Archives) is proud to host over 100 students from House 7A of Horizon Middle School as they unveil and celebrate the local history projects they created in conjunction with their community partners: Bonanzaville USA, Concordia College Archives, The Historic Comstock House and the Historical & Cultural Society of Clay County.

Projects for “History in the Making” include performances, documentaries, multi-media presentations, and exhibits that celebrate and showcase the rich heritage of our region.

Language Arts Teacher Carla J. Smith hopes “that students find that this truly is home and that they continue to appreciate and celebrate our region and its rich history. I want students to feel rooted here, to feel that what they say and do matters. I believe this project is important because it begins to forge those bonds.”
