Lindley 6th Grade Academy will host a competition of all-male step show teams in the metro Atlanta area and one visiting team from South Carolina as part of festivities for Black History Month.

The Feb. 10 event will cap several shows -- including an oratorical contest and poetry slam -- intended to explore the social, academic and historical aspects of black history.

The step show is 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the gym of the school, 1550 Pebblebrook Circle, Mableton.
