"Hidden Figures" Movie Outing

21 of our high school students attended the movie "Hidden Figures" on an Early Release Day. This movie is about a team of African-American women mathematicians who served a vital role in NASA during the early years of the US Space program.

Celebrating Black History Month

We watched videos throughout the month of February about achievements by black Americans and recognizing the central role of African Americans in history. The videos were from this website:
