February is the time to recognize, celebrate, and drive awareness for the following themes:
Black History Month
History.com: "The Black History Month 2023 theme, "Black Resistance," explores how 'African Americans have resisted historic and ongoing oppression, in all forms, especially the racial terrorism of lynching, racial pogroms and police killings,' since the nation's earliest days."
Blackhistorymonth.gov: The "For Teachers" page includes selected resources from The Library of Congress, National Archives, National Endowment for the Humanities, National Gallery of Art, National Park Service, Smithsonian Institution, and United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
Career & Technical Education Month
Best Job Ever - This National Geographic playlist of short videos explores a variety of lesser known professions that secondar students would find intriguing.
CTE Month and NASA Hunch 2022-2023 Student Video Challenge - Students in CTE or project-based classes across grade levels may participate. This year's challenge is "What is the purpose of NASA?"
