MLK Social Justice Teach-In Days Leave A Lasting Impact
Understanding the Historical Relevance and Impact of Dr. King’s Work
In honor of the work and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., GDS Middle School and High School students participated in the annual MLK Social Justice Teach-In Days. Each day was filled with panel discussions, workshops, service projects, and performances, all with the goal of students not only understanding the historical relevance and impact of Dr. King’s work, but also remembering that our awareness and actions are equally important.
