West Park Continues to Focus on Black History Month Studies

Feb 19, 2021

 

During the month of February, students at West Park School continue to learn about famous African-Americans who have helped make a difference and break barriers in the United States. One person in particular who students learned about was Dr. Mae Jemison. She was the first black woman to go into outer space! Students continue to learn and gain knowledge of current and past African-Americans who have made significant contributions to our country.
