Franklin Pierce Schools and all offices are closed on Friday, June 19, in observance of Juneteenth. Offices will reopen on Monday, June 22.
Happy Freedom Day! Juneteenth, sometimes called Freedom Day, commemorates when the last enslaved African Americans in Texas received news on June 19, 1865 that they were freeβtwo and a half years after President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing enslaved people in states which had seceded from the union.
In addition to this, Juneteenth celebrates Black communities' rich culture, traditions, and experiences throughout history that have impacted and shaped the world that we live in today.
Franklin Pierce Schools is grateful to learn from and celebrate Juneteenth alongside our Black students, families, and staff. How do you and your family recognize Juneteenth?
