Lower Elementary Students Mystery History Presentations in Honor of Black History Month

March 3, 2025

Our Redbud Lower Elementary class celebrated Black History Month with special Mystery History Presentations. They have been researching inspiring black leaders, advocates, and public figures. They then created presentations, and families had to guess the “mystery” speaker. We had the pleasure to hear from Ruby Bridges, Barrack Obama, Michael Jordan, Harriet Tubman, Jackie Robinson, Ray Charles, and many more.
