library program for Martin Luther King Jr.

Well tomorrow we are gong to be having a program that is to honor the memory of a great man, Martin Luther King Jr. The program started years ago and it involves students writing a letter to MLK . Some of the letters are touching, others look like a homework assignment and others are funny because they were written by students who did not pay attention to the whole lesson in class and because of it, some of them are very funny.
Tomorrow there will be dignitaries ranging from the Queens Borough President Helen Marshal to local bigwigs and we just found out today that Senator Charles Schumer may be here. You can just feel the need for photo ops, it is so thick. But a lot of the students will be here as well as at least one teacher and it really is about the students being recognised for what they are doing and learning It will be a busy day and probably a lot of fun. At least it will seem like more fun after the day is over.
