Overview and metadata sections
The Chestnut Hill Academy (now known as the Springside Chestnut Hill Academy) is a private school located in the Chestnut Hill section of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
This collection is comprised of records of the Chestnut Hill Academy (now known as the Springside Chestnut Hill Academy). The collection includes copies of the Cerulean yearbook, newsletters, special occasion brochures, CHA News, annual reports, course materials, and other administrative records. The collection also includes the proposed campus expansion plans of 2004, complete coverage of the 1998 CHA history exhibit, and copies of school history manuscripts and publications. Of special interest in this collection is correspondence regarding the merger of CHS and Springside School in 2011. There are also a small amount of newspaper clippings regarding activities at the Academy.
Summary descriptive information on this collection was compiled in 2011-2012 as part of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania’s Hidden Collections Initiative for Pennsylvania Small Archival Repositories (HCI-PSAR), using data provided by the Chestnut Hill Historical Society. The HCI-PSAR project was funded by a grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
This is a preliminary finding aid. No physical processing, rehousing, reorganizing, or folder listing was done in the HCI-PSAR project.
