BLACK HISTORY FLASHBACK - Fredericksburg (VA) Schools Superintendent Dr. Marceline Catlett speaks during the 2024 ceremony dedicating the Gladys West Elementary. We were honored to be invited when our children's book focused on the late Dr. West was recognized.
A mind that changed the world has joined the ancestors.
Dr. Gladys West helped lay the foundation for the GPS technology we rely on every day.
We literally don't know where we'd be without her work! Rest well, Dr. West.
We are honored!! In 2 weeks, Fredericksburg Schools (VA) will dedicate the new Gladys West Elem. School to recognize the incredible accomplishments of this STEM pioneer! Moreover, I have been invited to represent our team which named our book’s fictitious school after Dr. West!
