Here at Great River, we are celebrating Black History Month this February! Our school is a place that is fraught with all the real challenges of racial justice in our time and place, here in Minnesota in 2022. We offer our school as a place where Black lives can be actively appreciated, loved, and celebrated in history and the present day.

Some of the resources that our faculty will be bringing into the classroom this month are from the Center for Racial Justice, Black Lives Matter @ School, and other community-compiled resources uplifting Black voices. We are grateful to work together to make the best and most just community we can. Look for more BHM information in our February newsletter, out next week. Happy Black History Month!
