BLACK HISTORY MONTH

Segregation is the practice of keeping ethnic, racial, religion or gender groups separate, especially by enforcing the use of separate schools, transportation and housing.

Could you imagine not going to the school of your choice? Could you imagine being in a classroom with students who are only your race? How about eatting and drinking at seperate restuarants or not being able to play with your friends from a different ethnic group? Or even being mistreated because of your skin color? Some of you have experienced this type of treatement and some of you will never. In celebration of Black History month we will explore the life of Ruby Bridges and learn how she made changes during the time of segregation.

About Me

Hello my name is Ms.Coco, I was given that name from my students when I first began teaching. I love to teach, sing, dance and act. I've been a performing arts teacher for six years. I've performed in various plays and I've even sung at the famous apollo theatre.I am currently working toward my B.A. degree. I am majoring in speech communication and minoring in elementary education. My goal is to start out as an elementary teacher and perhaps become a reading professor or speech therapist. Also in the near future I would like to particapate in plays and record my own gospel cd. As you see I have big dreams and aspirations and so can you.
