Black History Month
Black history and culture is an integral part of the American history. It was originally established in the 1920s by Carter G. Woodson. February was chosen for the celebration of Black History Month because Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln were born in the month. It was extended to a month-long celebration in 1976, and has been celebrated by millions of school children. At Lakeside, we will have activities in the classrooms and on the announcements to raise awareness for this amazing month!
