During the month of February, GCPS schools celebrated Black History Month and the many contributions of African Americans to our great nation. Students studied all aspects of Black history across subject areas, performed plays and music, competed in Black History Month "quiz bowl" events, researched and shared their findings on historical figures, created informative bulletin boards and art, represented famous African Americans in "living history" museums, performed dances and read poetry, created videos, learned about Historically Black Colleges and Universities, attended heritage celebrations, and more. In this photo gallery, find just a few of the many ways GCPS students celebrated Black History Month 2017.
