Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day

  • Greenwood PTO, Inc, Wakefield, MA 01880 (map)

Thanks to the efforts of a group of California elementary school students in 2018, Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day was created to honor the bravery of Ruby Bridges in integrating her elementary school in New Orleans. Here at Greenwood, we will have an assembly presented by “Wee the People” on Tuesday morning to learn more about Ruby Bridges and why she is recognized and celebrated. We’ll also have our own Greenwood School walk in honor of Ruby’s walk after the assembly. Wear purple to join in the celebration!
