Latino Family Day
An educational conference designed for Latino/a/x families where participants learn about resources available surrounding familial success. Families, including students in grades 8 through 11, will participate in various topics including tools for academic success, building healthy social and life skills, growing leadership skills, and a ton more! Sessions will be offered in Spanish for parents and bilingually or in English for students.
Juntos en Familia
Held annually in the Fall, Juntos en Familia is a day-long educational conference designed for Latino/a/x families and their students in grade 12. Participants will be able to attend a variety of workshops focusing on the crucial steps, resources available, and support necessary to transition to college. Sessions will be offered in Spanish for parents and bilingually or in English for students. An array of experts in their fields will be facilitating the workshops.
Due to low enrollment, the Juntos en Familia event has been cancelled. Instead, we encourage families to register for the Latino Family Day event hosted in January. Information for 12th graders and their families will be provided during that event.
