A Message from Principal Steinberger:
As Black History Month draws to a close, I encourage Students to continue exploring the influence of Black Americans in American History.
February spotlights Black History, but it is important to continue this work throughout the year.

- Jazz is Black Excellence (Jazz at Lincoln Center Celebrates Black History)
Mrs. Hassan, our RMS Librarian, invites Students to explore her guide to Black History Resources. Books about Black History, and more, are now available in the RMS LIBRARY INVENTORY.
