Black History Month is here!
In other DAA news, students will have a free day on Friday, February 16th, while teachers spend the day analyzing school-wide testing data. Though we know that a well-rounded education is about much more than test scores, we are working hard to make sure our students remain as competitive as possible. During data day, teachers consult and collaborate with each other to share best practices for steadily improving student performance. It is a productive team-building time that pays off greatly for our teaching strategies.
This means that from February 16th all the way through February 25th, families have the opportunity to explore the various Black History Month activities and events in the Detroit metro area.
We encourage making the celebration of Black History Month not just a school event, but a family event as well. For information regarding Black History Month events in the Detroit metro area, please visit the links below. More can be found online. This well-deserved break time would be a great time to get out and visit an exhibit, program, or Black-owned establishment. Enjoy!
