Here is just a taste of what Middle School students learn about throughout Black History Month. Each morning, teachers present a slideshow that highlights modern-day leaders, scientists, artists, musicians, etc., that, otherwise, students might never learn about or explore on their own!
Learners on in the Lower and Middle School celebrated the start of the Chinese New Year on Friday, February 12, 2021.
February is Black History Month. This month's journey began in 1926, proposed by historian Carter G. Woodson. At its start, the celebration was one week long, but the first month-long celebration took place at Kent State University in 1970. While confining the celebration of black excellence to one month is not our goal, the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee would like to use this month to acknowledge the talent, intelligence, joy, and societal contributions from the Black community.
