Last weekend at the History of Education Society annual meeting I shared some research on the Young Citizens League, a civics club/organization/student government structure for one-room schoolhouses in the Dakotas and Minnesota in the early to mid 20th Century.

After a long school year, there is nothing like taking the census to recharge ☺️ (The Monroe Journal/Monroe, NC/Feb. 9, 1915)

Timely day to share my winter break read. @organizewithshaun.bsky.social’s work examines the history and politics of Seattle from the Progressive Era on through the lens of its sports teams and athletes. In one book the reader bemoans lacking regional rail transit and losing the Sonics.

Had an amazing time presenting at my first HES conference and meeting incredible people sharing their work.
