Our students SHINED at this year's Black History Program!! We honored the achievements of African-Americans in the field of Aviation. Students in 5th-8th researched pilots, and created model airplanes from scratch! K-4th shared what they learned about Bessie Coleman, the first African-American Woman Pilot. Our keynote speaker was Captain Howard Baugh, the son of Tuskegee Airmen, Lt. Col Howard Baugh, who reminded us that "excellence is the greatest defense against racism and bigotry". Our 5th-8th grade boys wrapped up the evening with an incredible musical performance. It was a night to remember thanks to our parents, students, hard-working volunteers and staff!
