Last Friday, our Mustangs spent the day learning, exploring, and connecting with history in Birmingham. Students visited the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute and the historic 16th Street Baptist Church, standing in the very places where courage and resilience shaped the Civil Rights Movement.

They also made their way to Vulcan Park to take in the views and discover how Birmingham’s industrial story was built from the ground up.

Proud of our students for representing TMMS with curiosity, respect, and Mustang pride all day long.
