This February we are celebrating Black History Month by honoring historical figures.
Did you know Shirley Crisholm was the first African American woman to run for president? She served in Congress for 14 years, but didn't want to be known as the first person to accomplish something, she wanted to be known as someone "with guts."

This February we are celebrating Black History Month by honoring historical figures.
Did you know George Washington Carver developed hundreds of new products from the sweet potato, peanut, and other crops, and his discoveries earned him a national spotlight?
He was a scientist, educator, artist, inventor, and humanitarian. Born into slavery during the Civil War, became the first black graduate from Iowa Agricultural College. Carver then took a teaching position at the Tuskegee Institute, where he taught farmers how to nourish the soil, conserve resources, and feed their families.

The first official Groundhog Day was in 1886 in Punxatawney, PA at Gobbler's Knob, and the tradition continues to this day. In German folklore, if a hedgehog saw his shadow on Candlemas, there would be a second winter. As German settlers moved to the US, and hedgehogs were scarce, the traditions and legends transformed.
Our students are preparing for their upcoming battle of the books. Students will read 10 books and compete against other districts in May. #BKP #SCCares

Mrs. Sills' 5th graders celebrated Lunar New Year today! After reading and learning more about Lunar New Year this year, the year of the snake, we wanted to celebrate this holiday together in school.

The 5th grade team had a blast celebrating Lunar New Year! #BKP #SCCares
