The Putnam City Schools Museum displays historic artifacts and memorabilia of the Putnam City school district which covers much of the northwest Oklahoma City area.

The collections contain materials dating back to the formation of the school district which was created nearly a century ago from four small rural schools in the area. The building houses several thousand items which have been donated by the school system and by former graduates, teachers and patrons of the district. Members of the public are encouraged to visit the museum and browse through the displays. There are yearbooks, Senior picture displays, photo albums from elementary classes, Letter Jackets, band uniforms and sports paraphernalia, trophies, and displays for each decade of archives and other types of items from all the different schools in in the District. The museum is needing more items donated to the museum from all the schools and more volunteers from all schools and all years

The Putnam City Consolidated #1 school was the root of all the Putnam City School District’s family tree which we all belong to.

Everyone's help is needed to maintain and enrich our museum.

All work is done by volunteers but donations are needed for utilities and upkeep, as well as buying and building displays, etc. All of the articles and items that have been donated are much appreciated and the museum could not exist without them. To protect and display them properly, monetary donations are also needed. Monetary donations of any amount are welcomed.

As you plan a class reunion weekend, be sure to build in a visit to the PC Schools Museum as part of your official program. The Museum Committee will assemble a special display for each reunion class featuring yearbooks (many from middle school or junior high, and even some elementary ones), school newspapers, scrapbooks, event programs and other memorabilia from your class's school years. The Museum is a great place for classmates to gather on reunion weekend Saturdays . . . or, if you are looking for a free location to host an informal Friday evening gathering we will be happy to open the Museum specially for your group. Should your reunion committee wish to hold an organizational/planning meeting at the Museum, just contact us in advance and we'll make the facilities available to you. SPECIAL BONUS . . . we even have a number of cheerleader uniforms on hand should your class want to "surprise" some of the members at your reunion gathering with a dress up challenge!

The Museum should be a part of every class reunion weekend. Just contact the Museum Committee and we’ll arrange a special Museum tour for your class members!
