During the month of February, Morse School teachers and students celebrated Black History Month with a school-wide door-decorating activity. Although both the Morse School and the Cambridge Public Schools are working to ensure that African, African American and Afro-Caribbean stories, contributions, and voices are systematically integrated into our curriculum throughout the year, we still believe that Black History Month offers an opportunity to lift up Black history and experiences.
With the participation of students across all grade levels, the doors of our classrooms and offices have been transformed to highlight contributions and experiences of the many Black scientists, artists, inventors, performers, athletes, educators, explorers, authors, and leaders (past and present) who have helped shape our world.
You can see some of our "book cover doors" in the slideshow below!
