Black History Month is an opportunity for us to continue celebrating the trailblazing contributions and impact of African Americans in education and beyond. We know that Black history transcends the month of February, and we strive to amplify Black voices of the present and past.

This month, we’ll invite a guest blogger to share their experiences and achievements as a Black leader in the education space. As a staff, we will observe Black History Month by doing individual learning as part of a broader liberatory learning journey.

We know that our journey of learning will extend well beyond these 29 days, and we welcome the opportunity to celebrate Black History and champion Black voices this month and beyond.

For four decades, LAEP has been at the forefront of the movement to create equitable educational opportunities for all children – from diapers to diplomas. Partners like you make it all possible. Thank you!
