Black History Month Spotlight: Honoring Local Legends & Future Leaders This Black History Month, the Tom Johnson Boys Academy of Mon Valley pays tribute to the trailblazing Black men who shaped our communities through leadership, innovation, and resilience.

Williams, to sports legends like Roberto Clemente, who stood for justice beyond the field, and business pioneers like August Wilson, whose words gave voice to our stories—these men paved the way for future generations. At TJBA, we are committed to empowering the next wave of history makers. Through a structured curriculum and a nurturing environment, we equip young men with the knowledge, confidence, and character to be the world changers they were purposed to be.
