43rd Annual Keeping the Dream Alive Assembly
January 13, 2023
9:00am
City Honors School at Fosdick-Masten Park,
The students of City Honors School will present the 43rd annual "Keeping the Dream Alive" assembly at 9:00AM on Friday, January 13, 2023.
Our students will express their vision of the ideals of a just and egalitarian society through presentations of poetry, dance, speech, music, attire, and visual art.
"Keeping the Dream Alive" assembly takes its name from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s iconic speech. It has been reserved as a day of collective remembrance, contemplation, discussion and celebration at City Honors School since its inception in 1981 (two years before the federal declaration of the MLK holiday). The Keeping the Dream Alive Assembly was founded by Mrs. Irene Taylor McVay, a City Honors teacher assistant for 42 years. As a high school student in Virginia, Mrs. McVay directly contributed to events of national historic significance at the dawn of the modern civil rights era.
Community members are warmly welcomed to join us. Please RSVP with our main office (716) 816-4230 for parking instructions and to reserve seating.
