Black History Month
The story of Black History Month begins in 1915, half a century after the Thirteenth Amendment abolished slavery in the United States.
That September, the Harvard-trained historian Carter G. Woodson and the prominent minister Jesse E. Moorland founded an organization dedicated to researching and promoting achievements by Black Americans and other peoples of African descent.
President Gerald Ford officially recognized Black History Month in 1976, calling upon the public to “seize the opportunity to honor the too-often neglected accomplishments of Black Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history.”
Today, Black History Month is a time to honor the contributions and legacy of African Americans across U.S. history and society—from activists and civil rights pioneers such as Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth, Marcus Garvey, Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X and Rosa Parks to leaders in industry, politics, science, culture and more.
In honor of Black History Month, we have been highlighting a variety of historical figures on daily morning announcements. We have also provided classroom teachers with posters to display in their classrooms. Additionally, our media specialist has created a book display of books with Black authors and Black characters. The students have a variety of both fiction and non-fiction books to choose from.

Help Keep Student Meal Accounts Current
Chandler Unified School District's Food & Nutrition Department is committed to providing access to healthy food for all students every day. Our charging and fill-in meal policies are in place to ensure students can eat a balanced meal, regardless of their account balance or payment status. This initiative allows members of the community to contribute funds to help cover the negative balance of student meal accounts.
We are at a zero balance on our lunch fund to assist those students who do not have enough money in their account to buy a lunch, and the need is great.
