February is Black History Month, but we support Black History education and our Black community everyday. Please visit our resource page at FerndaleSchools.org/BHM to find some great ways to show your support and educate yourself. Special activities are going on in our schools this month to honor the legacy of a beautiful culture that has blossomed out of such tragic beginnings.
It's important to remember that Black History month is more than just a highlight reel of Black accomplishments and Black tragedies. As President Obama said in 2016, "We know that this should be more than just a commemoration of particular events. It’s about the lived, shared experience of all African Americans, high and low, famous and obscure, and how those experiences have shaped and challenged and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so we can create a better future."
Mark Wood of the Trans-Siberan Orchestra will be returning to Ferndale Schools to perform with our orchestra students on Tuesday, February 7th at 7:00 pm.

Mark led FMS students in an epic performance in 2016, and we are eagerly awaiting the return of this rare performance. This year, Ferndale Upper, Middle, and High School students will share the stage.

Eagles Exploring Europe (E3) is hosting a Little Caesars Pizza Kit fundraiser until January 30th! Funding will help students cover gratuity for drivers, guides, and other service providers along the way. Bob Henderson—E3 Group Leader and FHS Social Studies teacher—said, "This was an unprogrammed expense, and knowing how hard many of our students have worked to fund their trips, I would love to be able to take this off their plates."

Pizza Kits will be delivered directly to their home by FedEx, so send the link to your out of state family and friends, too. Don’t forget to buy some for yourself!
