Langston's Letters
May 29 - June 2
A Note from the Principal
Dear Langston Hughes Family,
On Friday June 16th we will come together to celebrate our 2nd Annual Juneteenth Festival. The day will include a parade, student performances, and lunch in the schoolyard. Students will perform dances, songs, poetry, and music. All activities will take place in the schoolyard (weather permitting), and we invite our families to join us. Bring a chair, pack your lunch and patience, and enjoy all that our students have to share.
