This special event is dedicated to honoring and elevating the heritage of our students, staff, and families by engaging the community in an evening that both educates and celebrates the rich history, culture, and contributions of Black and African American people. Attendees will have the opportunity to experience Black and African American culture through arts and crafts, music, food, student projects, stories, and dance highlighting the vibrancy and diversity that enrich our schools and community.

As Spaulding School prepares to celebrate Black History Month this February, families and staff are invited to help honor and uplift the African American, Black, and Biracial members of our community. Families who identify as African American, Black, or Biracial are warmly encouraged to share a photo or short written story that represents their culture and celebrations. Submissions may highlight special moments, traditions, accomplishments, or what cultural pride and celebration mean to your family. If possible, families may also include information such as national origin, languages spoken at home beyond English, interesting cultural facts, or meaningful traditions. Submitted stories and photos will be displayed at the school as part of our Black History Month celebration. Submissions are due by February 15 and may be emailed to bgreene@d56.org or jrwilliams@d56.org.
