Hello,
On behalf of the
Multilingual Department, the Office of Student, Families and Community
Engagement and STEM we want to thank you for your recent participation at the
Science and Health Related Careers Fair on February 26, 2015 at Roosevelt High
School for Latino students.
We served around 375 students. Both students and
organizations had an incredible and inspiring experience. I strongly believe
that that when students are able to create a strong support network between the
school and their community they are more likely to success and achieve academic
progress. The fair was also design for them to value bilinguism as an asset,
motivating them to continue to increase their English proficiency level, and
develop short and long term career goals, be ready for college, a career and
life.
I feel honored with all the incredible professional, passionate and
reliable people that join us in this event. As I mentioned before, this is the
first year doing this and we want to expand the concept to other high schools
and at family level. We will gladly continue this conversation for future
events! I also hope you had
the opportunity to connect with district and school key staff to continue this
collaboration.
A big thanks to our volunteers as well, and to Yajaira Guzman
Carrero, Aspiring Principal at Roosevelt for hosting the event, providing a
very welcoming environment for organizations and the students, and maintaining
students engaging and within the activity area.
