Hola Hola! We are back for another episode of Conversaciones con Colegas: Season 3. In this episode we had the opportunity to speak with Lucero Ramirez, a current translator for her school district who supports families to access the language and information in schools. She was born and raised in Southern California and has found her way into education for the last 10 years.

Our hope and vision for our podcast is to elevate the voices and needs of educators and students, especially those voices which are often silenced or overlooked. Lucero’s work aligns with LatinXChange because she is using her bilingual abilities to connect families and bring them closer to their students and school events. She has been able to encourage families to raise their students’ attendance, and has gone as far as helping families in need find food and shelter. She continues to prove that these services are necessary in our schools to help ensure that education is equitable for all.
