UTD continues to call for health and safety: "The decision about when it could be safe to return to face-to-face instruction in schools needs to be made based on science, data and public health measures as reported and interpreted by responsible health professionals. As educators, district staff, parents and community members in the fourth largest school district in the nation, we will continue to call for safety first to protect the health of our education workforce, students and families."

This Day In History marks the tragic killings of four little girls in Birmingham, Alabama. We will never forget Cynthia Wesley, Carole Robertson and Addie Mae Collins–all 14 years old, and 11-year-old Denise McNair. The four girls were murdered in the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in an act of terrorism by a Klan related group on Sept. 15, 1963 in Birmingham, Alabama. It came soon after the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom (Aug. 28, 1963.) See “Terrorism is Part of Our History” for more.
