Just a short note today to remind you that April 4 marks a dark day in American history. Today in 1968, the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. was slain by an assassin in Memphis, Tennessee.

Monday is the day we celebrate the birthday of a great and oh so important American, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King. Schools across the country are finding ways to celebrate this great man’s life, and, at least in our opinion, there is no better way to do that than with a school assembly program that brings Dr. King’s story to life for kids and adults alike.
