Special guest inspires STEM Launch Latino students

Dr. Jose Enriquez came to talk with our STEM Launch Latinos in Action students and he inspired them to chase their dreams!

"Intelligence is the only thing no one can take from you! You own it...now go get as much as possible!"

An immigrant, he was born in El Salvador and grew up in East Los Angeles. He attributes much of his success to his hard-working mother who sacrificed everything to give him and his siblings a better life.

Thank you to Dr. Enriquez, Rochelle Garcia Gomez and the district for providing this leadership opportunity for our students! #HispanicHeritageMonth #FiveStarProud
