State Superintendent Megan Degenfelder and the Wyoming Department of Education (WDE) joined National Museum of Military Vehicles Founder Dan Starks to celebrate the launch of a series of new curricula based around WWII, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. According to the Department of Education, the project is a collaboration between the Wyoming Department of Education, the National Museum of Military Vehicles, the University of Wyoming Malcolm Wallop Civic Engagement Program, and four Wyoming teachers. The Daniels Fund also supported the initiative with a grant. Superintendent Degenfelder says the initiative is about increasing patriotism in schools.
The curriculum videos were created by the museum production staff with input from several teachers across the state and in partnership with resources from the Wallop Program. Materials are hosted in the Wyoming Department of Education’s Civics Ed Center, providing free access to all Wyoming teachers, homeschool families, and other organizations.
