Background: Our classrooms throughout the district carried out many exciting activities to honor and reflect upon the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. leading up to and on the national holiday celebrating his birthday. These activi­ties included the 2020-21 Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Art, Speech and Writing Contests presented by Bader Philanthropies, Inc.

This year's Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. contests produced outstanding entries from students and many winners. The district is pleased to recognize the stu­dents for their amazing work around this year's theme: "Keep Moving Forward."

Congratulations to all winners of this year's Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Art, Speech, and Writing Contests. Please see the attachment for the full list of MPS winners.
