Bonham Elementary hosts black history month program

BRYAN, Texas (KBTX) - Students at Bonham Elementary are learning about black history through a program put together by the school.

The program started off with the singing of the Negro National Anthem.

They were also able to portray themselves as historical black figures and educate their audience.

Bonham Elementary Pre-K teacher Monica Thompson organized the program and says it’s important to teach their students about the important black figures of the past and present.

“We have so many people that are valuable from a long time ago that helped pave the way to where we are today,” said Thompson.

The program also featured performances from the Rudder Gospel Choir and Bonham Elementary step team.
