02/26/20 Announcements

  • Good morning Euclid High School where we are Respectful, Responsible, and Have Integrity. Today is Wednesday, February 26th.
  • In honor of HBCUs and in preparation for our Black History Program this Friday, the L.E.A.D. Scholars would like to share an HBCU fact with you each day. Today's HBCU moment spotlights the city of Nashville, TN; home of 3 HBCUs, Fisk University, Tennessee State University, and Meharry Medical College. In 1865, barely six months after the end of the Civil War and just two years after the Emancipation Proclamation, three men — John Ogden, the Reverend Erastus Milo Cravath, and the Reverend Edward P. Smith — established the Fisk School in Nashville. Now, Fisk University, it has a curriculum grounded in the liberal arts. Fisk University produces graduates from diverse backgrounds with the integrity and intellect required for true contributions to society. Fisk University emphasizes the discovery and advancement of knowledge through research in the natural and social sciences, business and the humanities. Notable alumni include, W.E.B. Dubois, Senator John Lewis, Comedian Kim Whitley, and many more. To learn more about Fisk University, visit fisk.edu or stop and see Mr. Cleaver's door, room 292. Tennessee State University was founded in 1912 and is the largest and only state-funded historically black university in Tennessee. TSU fosters scholarly inquiry and research, lifelong learning, and a commitment to service. At Tennessee State University, the students are the focus of the University's motto—Think. Work. Serve. Notable alumni include Oprah Winfrey, Wilma Rudolph, Henry Ford Sr., and many more. To find out more about the rich history of Tennessee State University, stop by tnstate.edu or see Mr. Fletcher's guidance door (rm 232).
