March is Women’s History Month and at Montair, we are working to highlight the contributions of women in the world. Last Wednesday, our Inclusion and Diversity Club researched a variety of women who have made an impact on the world. Be sure to come by the hallway near the MPR to learn about some of these amazing females. One woman studied was Mae Jemison. In 1992, Mae became the first African American woman in space. Mae attended Stanford University on a scholarship at the age of 16. She studied chemical engineering and African-American studies. Then Mae received her doctorate in medicine, served in the Peace Corps, and joined NASA. According to Mae,
"The thing that I have done throughout my life is to do the best job that I can and to be me."
This is exactly what we hope for our kids.
We want all of our kids at Montair to know that women and men have been working together to inspire us and to improve our world.

Here’s to a great week of learning together!
