Lifting Them Up

Black History Month Book Spotlight

For the month of February, we want to showcase this amazing book that has been worked on for many years. We are proud to have been a part of Dr. Angela Cherry’s publication, and for the incredible journey along the way.

“Lifting Them Up: Teaching the Hidden Curriculum to Help African American Students Beat the Odds” serves as a thank you to a group of African American teachers who made an impact on students lives. You can read more about her book here
