Our Migrant Education Program shared traditions, stories, and displays that helped students learn more about the rich heritage of local families.
We’re also grateful for our System Security Officers (SSOs), who not only keep our campuses safe but also build positive relationships with students. Their participation in cultural learning and support of today’s event showed their enthusiasm and professionalism.
Moments like these remind us that safety, learning, and community go hand-in-hand.
