The nation’s 250th anniversary is just around the corner, and the District staff and students are excited to mark the occasion with community events and classroom lessons and projects throughout June. These activities will put students in the shoes of Americans from 1776 to 2026, helping them better understand how daily life has changed.
But you don’t have to wait until June to break out the red, white and blue, as our schools will be celebrating in May with patriotic selections at the spring concerts from April 30 to May 14 and at the elementary school Memorial Day programs on May 21.
