The Tehran American School began in 1954 in Tehran, Iran and closed
its doors in December 1978 due to the Iranian Revolution. Thousands of
students, who were mostly American, attended the school over the years.
At one point, it was the largest American School outside of the United
States. Learn more about the Tehran American School (TAS) and the Tehran American
School Association by visiting our
About Us page. |

The TAS Attic Is Back! |
The
TAS Attic is back
and now anyone can upload memorabilia to it. We currently have some
school newspapers from the mid 70's and a few other items. We need
more. If you need help uploading your items, don't hesitate to email

.One of the biggest hits at the 2004 Atlanta Reunion was a
Map of Tehran
from 1977 that David Brown brought and another map of present-day Tehran
that Gayle Zargham brought after her recent visit to Tehran. The 1977
map has been scanned and added to the TAS Attic. The whole map may be
too big for people with dial-up connections to download, so there are two
other files you can download of the Northern half and the Southern half. |

Remember NIRT and AFRTS? |
|
Thanks to Mike Breton (History teacher in mid-late 70's) for donating 2
recordings of authentic radio programs from 1977 and 1978. One
recording is from NIRT (National Iranian Radio and Television?) which
includes all types of music from classic rock to disco to a couple of French
songs and the Iranian DJ is entertaining as well.
The second recording is a program from AFRTS(Armed Forces Radio and
Television Services?) which he asked his history students to listen to for a
school project. This recording is mostly music from the 1940's and
early 1950's with interesting commentaries from the DJ. It was a
regular program called "Time In A Bottle".
Both of these radio shows are very entertaining and bring back fond
memories of life in Tehran. The
files are way too large to store on our website, but if you'd like a copy,
send Paula Austin Watson $5 to cover the cost of the CD's and shipping and
handling charges. These would be great to listen to at your next TAS
get together or anytime. You can contact Paula at
paula@successfulwebs.com.
The files are over 2000 MB each. If anyone knows of a free place to store
these files so that you can download them through streaming media, let Paula
know. |
