Martin Luther King Day


On Monday, January 16th, our school will recognize Martin Luther King Day. Martin Luther King Day is also known as Martin Luther King’s birthday. It also celebrates the life and an achievement of Martin Luther King Jr.who was an influential American civil rights leader. He is most well-known for his campaigns to end racial segregation on public transport and for racial equality in the United States. The most famous being, “I have A Dream.” Our school generally uses this day as a make-up day but we haven’t had to close school yet this year. We have not recognized Martin Luther King Day in at least SIX YEARS! So everyone have a great day off from school and BE SAFE!
