Week 1. Day 1. ✨
Over the next four weeks, many of our staff will participate in the Booker T. Washington Teacher Institute, a time dedicated to professional learning, collaboration, reflection, and intentional planning for the school year ahead.
Of course, they will deepen their understanding of curriculum and instruction, but even more importantly, they will learn what it truly means to be part of the Booker T. Washington community, a school rooted in excellence, resilience, culture, and legacy.
Today, staff members began that journey with a walking tour of the North End community, where they learned about the rich history and impact of the neighborhood, including landmarks such as Douglass Center and Douglass Park.
At Booker T., we believe great schools are built when educators know and love the community they serve. This is bigger than a school year…it’s stewardship of a legacy. 🦅💙🧡

Grad Walk 2026!
Our halls were filled with pride, applause, and full-circle moments as Booker T. Washington alumni walked these halls one last time before graduation. From little Eagles to graduating seniors, this Grad Walk reminded our students that success is possible, dreams are reachable, and greatness can start right here at BTW.
To our graduates: thank you for coming back to inspire the next generation. We are proud of who you’ve become and excited for what comes next. Once an Eagle, always an Eagle. 🦅
Oh and they all remembered Mr. Marvin and the candy he always gave them! (some things never change😉)
