The Mission of the Central High School Foundation is “To improve the education of present and future students at Central High School.” One way the mission is fulfilled is through classroom grants.

7 2020 ANNUAL REPORT EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING

Experiential learning is an educational strategy that combines the use of rigorous classroom curriculum instruction with outside of the classroom curricular related learning experiences. Research has shown that when a school and its staff adopt the experiential learning strategy, student learning outcomes are maximized for young people of all backgrounds. The Central High School Foundation, by providing Central High School classroom experiential learning grants, has allowed our teachers and students, in all curricular areas, the opportunity to supplement and enhance the Central School High educational experience in a way that is unmatched by other public schools in the Metro Omaha area.

Ninth grade US history students and teachers traveled to the National World War I Museum in Kansas City in September 2019 to enhance their classroom studies on The Great War. Students spent time exploring exhibits related to their studies and engaging museum staff with questions about artifacts and historical content. This annual experiential learning opportunity is made possible thanks to a classroom grant funded by the Central High School Foundation.

In October 2019, a Central High School economics class left Omaha to visit the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. The bank covers Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Wyoming, and portions of western Missouri and northern New Mexico. Upon arrival, Eagles watched a video explaining the historical facts about the creation of our nation’s bank along with its 12 districts. In addition, students toured the money museum featuring the Harry S. Truman Coin Collection and gained an understanding of the money- creation process and the main functions of the Federal Reserve. This experiential learning opportunity was made possible thanks to a classroom grant from the Central High School Foundation.

Last fall, 9th grade US History students were visited by 8 cars from the Omaha Centennial Model T Club and the Meadowlark Model A Club. This is the 10th year these clubs have returned to Central High School. The clubs not only answered student questions about these historic vehicles, but they also allowed them to sit in the cars and even took them on short rides around the Joslyn Art Museum parking lot. This experiential learning opportunity augmented classroom studies about Henry Ford and the emergence of automobile culture in the United States during the 1920s.

Central history students attended the annual Governor’s Lecture at the Holland Center in October hosted by Humanities Nebraska. The keynote speaker was David Eisenhower II, grandson of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, and he discussed the role his grandfather played in the D-Day invasion of Europe in 1944. Central Social Studies teacher Scott Wilson was asked by Humanities Nebraska to moderate the Question and Answer session after Eisenhower’s speech. Several Central students had their questions addressed and many stayed to get their picture taken with Eisenhower after the lecture.
