Quote from our superintendent Julie Hackett:

“So proud of our students for organizing such a beautiful, inspirational evening! They raised over $10K for the integration of AAPI into our K-12 curriculum and honored Asian American veterans!

Why does AAPI curriculum integration matter? For hundreds of years, Asian Americans have been invisible, and they helped build this nation by amplifying AAPI voices! “
