We had a great sit down with the officers in Wheeling Park High School’s Black Student Union and Communities In Schools Ohio County, Miss Unique this morning!
The BSU is in its first year and currently has 42 members. “Anyone can join, and every meeting, we pick up more kids,” states Miss Unique.
The BSU focuses on ensuring that there is a sense of community and bringing together students.
Upcoming events? The BSU will be at Bridge Street Middle School for the Textured Expo, the resource fair that specializes in understanding the styling of black hair.
Many members of BSU will also join the YWCA during spring break when they will tour a variety of HBCUs or Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
Happy Black History Month, and thank you to this crew!
