We celebrated Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday this year with a school wide peace march. The students prepared for the celebration by learning a song and reflecting on their passions. They learned that MLK was a man who never backed down from his beliefs.
The students began the celebration with a silent peace march around the gym. After all of the students had gathered in the gym, they sat and listened as each class shared their talents. The kindergartners sang a song with Pre-K and 1st grade. They did fantastic!
The students also listened as some poems and essays were read about their feelings towards MLK and equality. We have many talented individuals at SJA!
As the grand finale, the students enjoyed marble cake baked by Mrs. Bartone!
