The senior International Baccalaureate class at Lee's Summit
North embarked on this adventure in their classroom. Students
researched assigned dates locating information from this web site,
the Public Papers Collection of
President Truman, and diary entries from the Truman Library. Being from
Jackson County, Missouri, the class takes a special interest in the
presidency of Harry S. Truman.
A number of students took the opportunity
to visit this website to find out how Harry was able to pull off one of
the most improbable election upsets of all time. Hopefully, this site will
help other students learn about events surrounding the presidential
election of 1948. Enjoy learning about 50 Years Ago Today in Truman's
Presidency.
