Herbert Hoover High School seniors brought the energy to prom, filling the dance floor at Events Center West with a night of music, movement, and celebration. Dressed to impress, students made the most of this annual tradition before heading off to after-prom events. See more photos of their night out. https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjCRkV6

We LOVE our BFLs! ❤️

Behind every strong school community are people making sure every family feels seen, heard, and supported.

Our Bilingual Family Liaisons are doing exactly that every day. They connect families with essential resources like housing and healthcare, while helping parents navigate school and planning for life after graduation.

Just as important, they empower families to advocate for their children and stay actively involved in their education.

Together, our BFLs speak more than 20 languages, breaking down barriers and building stronger connections across our community.

We are grateful for the care they bring to our schools every day!
