"They had no clue where they were standing." Do YOU know where we're standing? This is Historic ground, and we are making history once again! Not only are we finishing the march - We have a Proud Lion at the helm! #WhatsBetterThanALion? #AlwaysALion
It's a GREAT Thursday in The Den, and we're just getting started. Check out The Shreveport Times article featuring our Principal (and BTW Alum) Mrs. Barnes! Then, join us tonight for "Shreveport Rising: We've Come This Far by Faith" featuring BTW alum Javan Elzie and Cardavious Monroe and BTW Cheerleader Taylor Washington! STUDENTS WITH A CURRENT BTW ID GET IN FREE!
Tomorrow, we will FINISH THE MARCH Our Mighty Lions began 60 years ago!
Lions have a history of Excellence. #NotNewToThis #TrueToThis #WhatsBetterThanALion?!
What a WEDNESDAY! We have an ART CONTEST announcement!
Let's do it FOR THE CULTURE! In recognition of the 60th Anniversary of the BTW Student March and Hispanic Heritage Month, we want to celebrate and represent CULTURE. Submit your works to Mrs. Whitaker-Nelson in the Library! We're building our Art Break collection NOW! #WhatsBetterThanALion?
Today is NATIONAL VOTER REGISTRATION DAY!
Voting is a key part of the American Experience, but it has not always been easy for all Americans to partake of this right. Dr. King even came to Shreveport and spoke on the matter at Galilee Baptist Church in 1958! It's important that we appreciate and USE this right! #WhatsBetterThanALion?
One way we can celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month is by stopping by the library to explore literature and history! Today's Feature:
Cuba 15 is a novel about Violet Paz who has just turned fifteen, a pivotal birthday in the eyes of her Cuban grandmother. Fifteen is the age when a girl enters womanhood, traditionally celebrating the occasion with a quinceañero.
While Violet is half Cuban, she’s also half Polish, and more importantly, she feels 100% American. Stop by to see how Violet navigates this time in her life! #ReadersAreLeaders #WhatsBetterThanALion? #HispanicHeritageMonth
STUDENTS! Not sure what to do after the final bell? Sign up for the Lighthouse Afterschool Program! #WhatsBetterThanALion?
We are honoring our history this week by Finishing the March that Leaders & Mighty Lions began 60 years ago. Thursday - Sunday are filled with opportunities to learn and be reminded of just how blessed we are! #WhatsBetterThanALion? #ShreveportHistory #BlackHistoryisAmericanHistory #BlackHistoryisWorldHistory
Great game, Giants. GREAT WIN, LIONS!
What a way to start off the week: THE 2023 SOUL BOWL CHAMPIONS!
Congratulate The Mighty Lions when you see them today for making sure NOBODY won on OUR new turf before THE LIONS won!

A week from today, we'll go down memory lane and learn about Those Brave Lions and Leaders who defied the odds to reach the freedom Our People had always deserved. "Shreveport Rising: We've Come This Far by Faith" is an inspirational and educational stage play directed by Mr. Vincent Williams and written by Mr. David Barr. This evening will leave you enlightened and empowered to take on the world!
All we needed was some dominoes and a cooler full of Peach Fantas for this cookout to be any better! Our #RichAuntieandUncle vibes were very real on lunch shift! Special thanks to Downhome Smoked Sausage for the links Coach Cooper threw on the grill for everybody! #WhatsBetterThanALion?!
