This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
Our students are exceptional scholars! Our scholars work hard academically and in demonstrating our core values: love, excellence, boldness, perseverance, and wonder. We are disruptors who will create positive change in the world!
We are still a relatively new school, and are always in need of more and and better materials.
Our library desperately needs updated books related to black history and those in the African American community who exemplify our own values. These books will absolutely be used during Black History Month, but also year round - because Black history IS American history!
