Guilford Elementary School students participated in the Unheard Perspectives Black History Month Showcase at Oakland Mills Middle School on Saturday, February 11, 2017.   Students who participated in the showcase were judged on their oral and visual presentations on African-American innovators that have impacted their own lives.  A total of 14 Howard County Elementary schools sent representative teams to the showcase.  In addition to the three teams representing Guilford, we also had three other teams who participated at the school level.  All teams were able to share their presentations on our WGES morning announcements and will present at our Night of Excellence on May 18, 2017.
