The AHS Black History Committee presented their Annual Black History Month Assembly. The month long focus on this year’s theme was personified. During the assembly the strength of local Arkadelphia history makers was celebrated, attendees were educated about the heritage of the National Pan-Hellenic Council, and the pride found within our community was elevated through song and dance.
