Vancouver’s Legacy of Alternative Education

 

 

 

 

The Clark County Historical Museum (CCHM) is excited to present retired alternative educator Pepper Kim as November’s Speaker Series lecturer on Thursday, November 7, 2024. Doors open at 6:00 pm and the program begins at 7:00 pm.

Pepper will delve into the development of the non-traditional learning opportunities for students of Clark County from the 1970s onward, from the humble beginnings of the Rainbow Gardens Learning and Food Cooperative to the development of the Cascadia Tech Academy (Clark County Skills Center) and Running Start.

The presentation is part of the CCHM’s ongoing Speaker Series, which features talks by local historians, authors, and experts on a variety of topics related to Clark County history.

The CCHM Speaker Series is presented by the Clark County Historic Preservation Commission. Admission to the presentation is $5 for the general public and free for CCHM members, veterans, and active-duty military personnel. The museum is located at 1511 Main St, Vancouver, WA 98660.
