George W. Bush Presidential Center
The George W. Bush Presidential Center and Parish Episcopal School have partnered to allow Parish students and educators access to archives of the eight years of the Bush Presidency.
“We’re excited for this inaugural partnership opportunity with Parish, and as we build relationships with other public and private schools we anticipate applying this model throughout Dallas,” says Alan Lowe, the director of the George W. Bush Presidential Center via press release.
The partnership will focus on four main components: educational programming, mentoring and service, Academy of Global Studies and Parish as a Bush Library and museum outreach center.
“As the fundamental mission of the archives is to preserve and provide access to the records of the Bush Administration,” says Heather Nice, educational specialist for the Bush Library. “This partnership offers students, educators, and Bush Library staff the opportunity to reexamine what providing access means and to develop innovative, hands-on opportunities to engage with National Archives records,” she says.
