Linkers represent “Changemakers” in Black History

February 12, 2024 By Sharon Machrone

In observance of Black History Month, Lower House (Kindergarten through grade 2) students came to school dressed to represent a “Changemaker” in Black History, a person who has worked or works proactively to make the world a better place. Students paraded around the Penn campus showing off their creativy to 5th and 6th grade students and staff. Among the changemakers at Link: Ruby Bridges, Malcolm X, Dr. Martin Luther King, Misty Copland, Mae Jemison, Louis Lattimore, LeBron James, Beyonce, Bob Lemmons, Dorothy Vaughn, and so many more people!
