Happy Juneteenth!
This long celebrated and newly named federal holiday commemorates the emancipation of African Americans who had been enslaved. Take some time today to learn about our nation’s history.
This ARPA and PTA Advocacy webinar is also at michiganpta.org/covid-19-rel… as are all resources. Your school district is required to engage and inform your community regarding how these funds are spent. This a great time to have your voice heard! youtu.be/SaAGuC7rNN0 via @YouTube
