At 44 years old, Shirley Chisholm became the first black woman to be elected to the United States Congress, serving seven terms in New York’s 12th congressional district. In 1972, she became the first black candidate for a major-party nomination for President of the United States and the first woman to run for the Democratic Party’s nomination. During her political career, among other achievements, Chisholm fought for the expansion of food and nutrition programs for the poor and education programs for disadvantaged students. She played a critical role in creating the Special Supplement Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC), which continues to benefit millions of pregnant women and children today.

Black History Month, also known as African American History Month, is celebrated every February in the United States.
This is a wonderful opportunity to recognize those who have contributed to and achieved so much for freedom and equality while also celebrating the beauty and history of African American culture.

Last week’s Christmas Performance was delayed by all the nasty weather. But today, the students and staff alike showed we all still have the holiday spirit as students played and sang carols for all to enjoy.
The holiday season at New Outlook Academy was best summarized by Sam’iia’s original poem that she read to open the show. May we all remember the true value of Christmas “presence.”
