Cultural Awareness Group

The Cultural Awareness Group is a student-initiated group formed in the 2022-23 school year. Its goal is to educate our student body when it comes to the various cultures that are represented in our hallways and promote celebration of diversity and unity.

Black History Month is an annual celebration of achievements by African Americans and a time for recognizing their central role in U.S. history.

The official colors of Black History Month are black, red, yellow, and green, which symbolize unity and pride. The colors are derived from the Ethiopian flag and the Pan-African flag, which was created in 1920 to represent the unity of the African diaspora and Black liberation in the US.

"Red is the color of the blood which men must shed for their redemption and liberty; black is the color of the noble and distinguished race to which we belong; green is the color of the luxuriant vegetation of our Motherland," according to the UNIA-ACL.

The color yellow, from the Ethiopian flag, symbolizes justice, optimism, and equality.

IN October 2022, the Cultural Awareness Group held its first public event, celebrating Hispanic Heritage month! Students, families and businesses alike made a great night of authentic food sampling, ethnic displays and a message about Gospel work south of the U.S. border. Thanks for making it happen, Warriors and friends! We are truly better together.
