Our last Cultural Chat of the year was led by two outstanding professionals, Mr. Xay Vongxay and Mr. Frank Pham from Hella Good Deeds KC. A group of our male Asian students joined this meaningful conversation, exploring diverse topics around identity, leadership, and life success.
Students gained valuable tools and inspiration to support their personal growth and future goals. Thank you to our facilitators for their time, wisdom, and leadership.
📸 Pictured are Mr. Vongxay, Mr. Pham, and Ms. Vann, Vice Principal.



As part of our Cultural Chat series, Chica Charla was led by Ms. Matos, our College Advisor, proudly born in Peru. Ms. Matos shared her personal life experiences growing up and building her future in the United States, creating a welcoming and inspiring space for conversation.
In a friendly and uplifting dialogue, our Latina female students shared their dreams, goals, and hopes for their futures. It felt like a close‑knit community—united by shared experiences, culture, and aspirations
