Feature Story

Cannelton Elementary School Cannelton Elementary Mini-Granthas been affiliated with Buddy for 11 years. As a Buddy Core Value School they instituted the Cannelton Brochure Project involving incoming fourth graders. The students researched local historical buildings and landmarks to create a tourist brochure, which will be presented to the Cannelton City Council. Students visited and photographed the places they selected and interviewed several citizens about the landmarks. To see the final product, visit their personal Buddy Project page on Cannelton Elementary's website.

Cannelton Elementary School was honored for their Echoes of Cannelton school wide (K-6) project. Students and their families interviewed Canneltonians about growing up in the community during the 1920s through the 1960s. In celebration they held an Echoes of Cannelton Day, where people came to hear citizens share their childhood experiences in Cannelton. This success led to the online Echoes project which won top honors in the International Website Contest Cyberfair 2002.
