My kids are off from school-that's about it here. Sydney is in elementary school, so she's learned all about Martin Luther King and what role he played in American history...but I don't think the middle or high schools mention him. It's just another day off for them. I assume the district feels they already educated the kids in elementary school, so why go over it again...but it would be nice to look back on those lessons with a more mature perspective. Perhaps they'd "get it" better...and carry his lesson on into their own futures.
