DAILY ANNOUNCEMENTS

*Character Education Theme for the Week: African American History Spotlight: Sarah Breedlove was born in 1867. You may not recognize that name because she was more famous as Madam CJ Walker. Walker was an African American entrepreneur, philanthropist, and a political and social activist. She developed a line of beauty products for African American women and became “the world’s most successful female entrepreneur of her time,” and one of the most successful African-American business owners ever. When Madam CJ Walker died in 1919, she was considered the wealthiest African American woman in America.
