This year’s Salem High School Art calendar - Birthplace of Route 66; Celebrating 100 years. Students' photo - left to right: Lilly Standley, Trista Dooley, Madison Reese, Jhonine Maralit, Haley Yerk, Clara Cooper, Cole Crocker, Peyton Logsdon, and Joshua McGraw. Not pictured - Reese Geary and Zoey Barnett. The students' work will be displayed at Arts Rolla, Route 66 Centennial Exhibition, which will be held in February 2026 at The Centre in Rolla. Calendars are available at the Salem High School Art Room and the Salem Public Library for 15.00. This year’s calendar celebrates the 100th anniversary of Route 66, often referred to as the “Mother Road,” one of America’s most famous highways and a symbol of westward travel and economic growth. Officially established in 1926 as part of the nation’s first federal highway system, Route 66 was named in Springfield, Missouri, by local leader John T. Woodruff, who later became the first president of the National Route 66 Association in 1927. Stretching roughly 2,400 miles from Chicago to Los Angeles, Route 66 connected the Great Lakes to the Pacific Coast and passed through a wide range of landscapes, from Midwestern farmlands and rolling hills to open plains and Southwestern deserts. Promoted as the shortest and most scenic route west, it became the first completely paved U.S. numbered highway and a major driver of tourism. Route 66 passes through eight states: Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California. Towns along the route prospered as gas stations, motels, and restaurants sprang up to serve travelers. At the same time, cities like Springfield grew into important transportation hubs, boosting population and economic development under the popular slogan, “Get your Kicks on Route 66.”
