The Martin Luther King Jr. holiday on Jan. 20, 2020, marks the 25th anniversary of the day of service that celebrates the Civil Rights leader’s life and legacy. Observed each year on the third Monday in January as “a day on, not a day off.”
This year, the Dermott School District will “host” A Day of Service. Students, with their parents or guardians will be invited to participate in the community service event from 10am-12:30pm.
Dr. King once stated, “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: ‘What are you doing for others?’” This year, we WILL do just that!!!
Afterwards, a “FREE” lunch will be provided. More details will follow, but we want you all to “Save the Date”
MLK Day is the only federal holiday designated as a national day of service to encourage all Americans to volunteer to improve their communities. The Corporation for National and Community service has been charged to lead this effort for the last quarter century.
