🕯️🙏🏼This year Bret Harte Middle School and Montera Middle made ofrendas at the Oakland Museum on 10/29. It was filled with student made sugar skulls representing the sweetness of life, flowers and pictures of family we continue to remember. 🕯️🌻What a great way to be in community in Oakland. It was a fun filled day with many ofrendas, music and food.

On Wednesday 10/11 Oakland Latino Educators and Latino Student Achievement traveled to West Oakland to honor another Latino OUSD staff member to honor Daria Leavitt, she is an ELD teacher at the school.

It was our pleasure to recognize Ms. Leavitt teacher at West Oakland Middle School. She has generously shared her space for Latino Student Achievement program, been a thought partner and wonderful colleague and teacher!

She has been with the district for 3 years but is the daughter of a retired OUSD educator and administrator. Her family is from Panama and loves the WOMS community and the students.
Congratulations Ms. Leavitt!
