North Main Street School Black History Month celebration
PLEASANTVILLE — The North Main Street School celebrated Black History month Thursday with a presentation African music and dance.
Staff and students gathered in the school's cafeteria to watch a performance by a group of fifth grade dancers to Martin Luther King Jr.'s I Have a Dream speech followed by an interactive show by The Seventh Principle called "Bantaba: The Circle of Celebration."
The Seventh Principle performance was sponsored by the arts education organization Young Audiences which works across New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania to bring art and music into the classroom.
Students were able to learn about different drums and drumming styles and participate on stage.
