February is Black History Month, giving West Linn-Wilsonville students and the entire nation the opportunity to reflect on Black History in America. Black Student Union students from Wilsonville and West Linn High Schools created a slideshow highlighting historical black figures who inspire them. Students across all district schools and grade levels will spend time during the month of February learning about black history, which is also American history.

Interested community members are encouraged to review the Black Student Union's historical slideshow.
