Martin Luther King Day at the Academy


The Academy celebrates Martin Luther King day in a special way this year as the schedule pictured indicates. It is a day full of discussion, listening, and gaining a better understanding of how to make Dr. King's dreams a reality. A full description of todays events can be found on the Governor's website. The book pictured on the left, Mine Eyes Have Seen: bearing witness to the struggle for civil rights, depicts the civil rights movement through photos and essays. Although it mainly focuses on Martin Luther King, it also includes other leaders and community organizations that have worked and continue to work for equality.
