Black History Month Trivia for February 16th!

Hello again!

Here's today's trivia question for those of you playing along at home:

Mary Fields, also known as Stagecoach Mary, was the first African American woman to work for the United States Post Office.  When the snow was too deep for horses to pull her mail stagecoach what did she do?

A)  Waited until the snow melted to deliver the mail
B)  Strapped on snowshoes and carried the mail herself
C)  Shoveled a path in the snow for her horses to follow

Your student can turn in his or her correct answer before school starts tomorrow in the box at the office.  Two lucky correct answers will be drawn and those students will receive family passes to the Milwaukee Art Museum!

ANSWER:  Strapped on snowshoes and carried the mail herself
