The total solar eclipse expected on April 8 already is inspiring school lessons in science, literacy and culture. Some schools in or near the path of totality also are organizing group viewings for students to experience the awe of daytime darkness and learn about the astronomy behind it together. Dennis Schatz, a former president of the National Science Teaching Association, encourages educators to use the eclipse as “a teachable moment.” But the timing of the eclipse, around dismissal time for some in its path, means many schools will be closed for the day so that students aren’t stuck on buses or in crowds expected to gather.

As Black Protestants prepare for Easter this year, they hope to welcome more people to church than since the COVID-19 pandemic began four years ago. Black clergy like the Rev. William Lamar IV at Washington, D.C.’s historic Metropolitan AME say their churches are still feeling the pandemic’s impact on church attendance, even as they have rolled out robust online worship options to reach people. Black Protestants’ monthly church attendance declined more than any other major religious group from 2019 to 2023, according to the Pew Research Center. They are the most likely group to watch religious services virtually. This season’s sermon topics include human suffering in places like Gaza, as well as the hope of resurrection.
