Celebrating Black History Month in Baldwin

The Baldwin school district united its five elementary schools in a tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. through the annual poster contest.

Hosted by the school district and inspired by The Concerned Parents of Baldwin—a group of parents with children in the district—the event aimed to honor Dr. King’s legacy of service by channeling students’ creativity through art.

Principals and art teachers from each school served as judges, evaluating the posters created by the students. Winners were recognized with certificates for their contributions.

As February marks Black History Month, the posters will serve as reminders of Dr. King’s impact and be on display at the District Office at 960 Hastings St. in Baldwin, throughout the month for the community to admire and reflect.
