Black History Month Celebrations
The M.S.D. of Wayne Township February Series
Video Series
Each year, we have the opportunity to spotlight Black educators who share a historically relevant individual or event with our students. Teachers across the district play the videos of their colleagues and engage students in learning more about Black History. Why? Because Black History is American History.
2023 National Black History Month Theme is Black Resistance:
The videos below will be played in classrooms district-wide as programmed in the calendar
