Little Rock Central High School In addition to visiting Little Rock Central High School and learning about the Little Rock Nine, we had the honor of meeting Dr. Sybil Jordan Hampton. Dr. Hampton grew up in Little Rock, Arkansas, and in 1962, five years after integration of the Little Rock Nine, she became the first African American student to complete her entire education at Little Rock Central High School.

Tamara Jolly... You and your team have done another fantastic thing for these kids... this is an opportunity for them to experience the sacrifice made by others in the past and present. The task is not "Finnished" yet. I hope this experience will encourage them to be strong and respectful as they continue this journey.

As grandparents, living in Greensboro, of one of these students, we were privileged to join them on their tour of the International Civil Rights Museum. yesterday. We had visited the museum before, but seeing it through the eyes of these thoughtful, engaged young people made it even more meaningful to us. What a wonderful experience this trip is for this impressive group of students!
