I choose this internship because it produced a flexible schedule and an opportunity to dive into the historical community. Our first project in late May was to make a historical display commemorating the graduates of William-Byrd high-school for their experience with COVID-19. The display also showed historical pictures of a senior class in the 1920s in the center and a 1950s senior class in the lower right corner. The desk also showed a 1960s senior year book and graduation programs ranging from 1970-1990. The formal blue dress was donated to the museum and the graduation gown that was probably made in the late 1960s. Overall, this display reveals the revolving history of education in Vinton.
