The school is the neighborhood landmark in an otherwise residential area. The school's original eight classrooms were built in 1898 with additions in 1905 (six-room addition on the west side of the building) and 1922 (kindergarten addition). Architect William W. Rose designed the original building and its additions in the Classical Revival style with Beaux Arts decorative elements. The two-story building has a full, partially above-grade basement with generally the same floor plan as the first and second floors, and two towers in the front of the building. The towers are accessible through the attic. Three chimneys were originally located in the building, but one was removed (the date of this removal is unknown). A photograph from approximately 1929 shows tall finials on both towers, but these no longer remain. The building has four primary entrances,

  • Kansas Core Outcomes Project
    KANSAS CORE OUTCOMES PROJECT 3/20/06 REPORT FOR SYSTEM COUNCIL OF CHIEF ACADEMIC OFFICERS PREPARED BY RON WASSERSTEIN, WASHBURN UNIVERSITY BACKGROUND The Kansas Core Outcomes Project was initiated in 1999 by the Kansas Council of Instructional Administrators, a group comprised of the chief academic officers of the state’s community college and vocational-technical schools/colleges. The goal of this project was to develop core outcomes and competencies for general education courses at the state’s colleges and universities. The first meeting for the project was held in fall 1999 at the Southside Educational Center in Wichita. Faculty were invited to that meeting from the state’s 19 public community colleges, six Regents’ universities and Washburn University and represented six disciplines – biology, computer science, English, mathematics, sociology, and speech. A second meeting, in spring 2000, was conducted at Emporia State University, and three additional disciplines – history, chemistry, and psychology – were added to that initial group of six. A third meeting, again at Southside, was conducted in January 2001. Another meeting of the core competency groups was held in September of 2002. In addition, disciplines such as English, speech and mathematics have scheduled other, independent meetings subsequently. The Core Competency meetings were originally financed through the KCIA budget. Each institution made a commitment to their faculty and supplied them with finances for lunch and travel. Due to increased budget decreases and the time commitment for our faculty, it was decided that the meetings would be held annually in the fall semester in the coming years. On September 16, 2005, approximately 175 faculty members gathered at the Southside Educational Center once again to review and reevaluate the competencies previously selected in specific core general education courses.

The Hidden Cost of Brown v. Board: African American Educators’ Resistance to Desegregating Schools On July 24, 1953, following a meeting with the governor of South Carolina regarding the possibility of desegregation, President Dwight D. Eisenhower wrote in his diary: “I do not believe that prejudices, even palpably unjustifiable prejudices, will succumb to compulsion. Consequently, I believe that Federal law imposed upon our States…would set back the cause of race relations a long, long time.”1 While not a fervent supporter of Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka (1954), Eisenhower’s statement was somewhat prophetic. While Brown enabled children of all races and backgrounds to have equal opportunity and access in education, poor integration implementation policies and widespread white backlash presented problems for many black students and teachers.
