Café con la Familia | Pxfuel

From March 15, 2023 post. 

Café con la Familia was a GCPS event held last Thursday at Lilburn Middle School. Our county strives to create an environment of inclusivity and equity where families feel welcome and part of the GCPS community. Together with the Latin American Association, the event hosted our first Latino Community Dialogue.

This event offered opportunities to speak, listen, and learn. We created stronger bonds as members of a professional and educational community-- bonds that serve as critical building blocks for a more inclusive GCPS.

In an effort to empower our Latino student populations and their families, Marisol Devarez, the Spanish Language Community Outreach Liaison for our county, has made it her mission to strengthen the partnerships between Latino communities and schools. She is passionate about creating culturally responsive schools and environments by introducing programs and events that make our Latino students and families feel heard, seen, and valued. LES commends her efforts on behalf of our students and community and looks forward to the forthcoming events she plans for our schools. Marisol, your dedication and hard work have not gone unnoticed, and we appreciate your efforts in unison with Dr. Calvin Watts' to create a more diverse and inclusive future for our communities.
