WEEKEND FUN
The ladies of New Outlook enjoyed a movie weekend at the theater. On Saturday, students saw CREED while another group went to see MISSING on Sunday.
Of course, both groups enjoyed ice cream afterward.

BLACK HISTORY MONTH HIGHLIGHT – MAYA ANGELOU

February 28, 2023

Writer, poet, composer, performer, professor and civil rights activist, Maya Angelou inspired millions with her words and conviction. Her extraordinary life and career took her all over the world. When she died at 86 years old, she had broken many barriers throughout her lifetime, from being the first Black female streetcar conductor in San Francisco to a full-time African-American professor at Wake Forest University despite not having a degree.

Angelou used her talents and gifts to communicate the struggles she faced as an African-American woman, as well as the triumphs she achieved through her tenacity and fierce spirit.

BLACK HISTORY MONTH HIGHLIGHT – BOOKER T. WASHINGTON

February 27, 2023

Born into slavery in 1856, Booker T. Washington became one of the leading African American intellectuals of the 19th Century. At 16, he walked 500 miles to attend the Hampton Normal Agricultural Institute in Virginia, working as a janitor to afford his tuition.

He established the National Negro Business League and the Tuskegee Institute, among other schools and businesses. Washington dedicated himself to promoting education and entrepreneurial opportunities for young African Americans.

BLACK HISTORY MONTH HIGHLIGHT – Dr. Mae Jemison
Dr. Mae Jemison, born in 1956 in Decatur, Alabama, became the first black woman to travel in space when she served as a mission specialist aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour in 1992. While this is an incredible achievement, it is even more amazing that Dr. Jemison first earned degrees in chemical engineering and African and African-American studies from Stanford University. She also earned a medical degree at Cornell University before serving as a doctor in the Peace Corps.
But even at 12 years old, Dr. Jemison knew she wanted to be an astronaut as she felt frustrated with the lack of female crew members aboard the Apollo missions that captivated the nation in the late 1960s. After making her dream come true over 20 years later, she went on to be a successful author, professor, and researcher. She has also established several foundations dedicated to teaching science to young people across the globe.


Congratulations to the Summit Academy Knights basketball team on a phenomenal season and great effort in their playoff game.
