March has been designated Women’s History month since 1995 by Presidential Proclamations. Many women in our school have many accomplishments and high roles that should be shared and celebrated not only during this month but also throughout the school year. However, many years ago, women were not making these decisions, and I think having these big strides is helping the world overall and helping boost equality for women and men,” senior Avery Smith said.
