Today, District 202 honors and celebrates Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day or Jubilee Day. On June 19, 1865—more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation—enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, finally learned they were free.

Our elementary school Extended School Year students put their problem-solving skills to work this week in the library! Students searched for hashtag block challenge cards throughout the library, completed the building challenge, and shared with classmates by posting videos on a collaborative Padlet. It was a fun way to combine movement, problem-solving, and technology while learning together!
