Klara Owens - Pittsford PTSA Black History Month

Welcome to our Pittsford PTSA, Black History Month Program —Black History is American History—dedicated to celebrating Black Americans and other peoples of African descent.

Klara Owens works as a Client Success Manager - working with clients across the US to design leadership and technology strategies to enhance culture and employee engagement. She grew up in the city of Rochester and went to Fairport High School as part of the Urban Suburban program. She went onto college at the University of Albany majoring in both Business and Spanish language and has since traveled to 26 countries with a goal of reaching 30 countries before she reaches 30 years old.

 

OUR PROGRAM - BLACK HISTORY IS AMERICAN HISTORY

Throughout February, we will share our PTSA programming. We will also include news about the exciting educational experiences that schools across our district have planned to help students and families celebrate Black History Month.

We know that it is essential to create welcoming schools and classrooms where differences in language, culture, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender, unique abilities, etc., are viewed as assets rather than deficits. An awareness and acceptance of these differences are foundational to the success of all students.

Please return to our website each week. Here you will find interviews, historical profiles, and resources providing snapshots of the culture and the legacy of the African Diaspora and life in America.
