To Our Utica City School District Community,
As we prepare to celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day January 15th, I am filled with deep reflection and reverence for Dr. King's profound impact and legacy. This day is not just a moment for remembrance but a beacon of hope and a call to action towards a more equitable and just society.
Dr. King's legacy is particularly significant for our diverse Utica community. His unwavering commitment to equality, justice, and peace mirrors our own dedication to these values within our school district. We are a tapestry of diverse backgrounds and beliefs, and Dr. King's vision of a beloved community resonates deeply with us. His dream of a world where individuals are judged not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character is a guiding principle in our ongoing efforts to create an inclusive and welcoming environment for all.
As we celebrate this important day, let us carry the spirit of Dr. King's message with us throughout the year. Let it be a reminder of our collective responsibility to foster a community that uplifts every voice, respects every individual, and works tirelessly towards the dream of equality and justice for all.
Let us continue to draw inspiration from Dr. King's vision and work together to create a future that honors his legacy—a future where every member of our community has the opportunity to thrive and contribute to our shared success.
With respect and hope,
Dr. Kathleen Davis
Interim Superintendent
Utica City School District
