Bunker Hill Elementary School “is a community of celebration and learning. The multicultural school is located in the historically Black Michigan Park neighborhood and welcomes all neighbors into its rich history and community. Bunker Hill is currently undergoing modernization efforts and is dedicated to anchoring itself within the neighborhood while celebrating its story. A student-driven exhibit will foster continuity and celebrate alumni, neighbors, educators, and current scholars.”

The goal of this partnership is to run a 2 year-project that empowers Bunker Hill students to research the history of their school and uncover the stories of their school community. Using the students’ findings, we will create a permanent, museum-quality exhibit that shares their “school story” with the broader community. This exhibit will be installed in the school’s lobby and used as an educational and recruitment tool for years to come.
