Black History Month at WFS Lower School

Quaker Matters by Wilmington Friends School

Episode notes

Every February, with the support from our diversity committee and librarians, Wilmington Friends lower school students participate in a Black History Month project. Each class and/or grade chooses one important African-American figure to learn about, typically connecting to the class’s interest or the curriculum. After their research, the group creates a display to share about that person with the rest of the school. 

Part 1: George Washington Carver
