For New Rochelle High School seniors Fabian Valderrama and Barbara (Gaby) Meda, the recent 9th Annual Latinx Youth Leadership Conference was an important expression of cultural pride. This student-led event provided a forum for teens to build their skills, celebrate their strengths, hear from successful Latinx role models, and become inspired to follow their dreams and pursue a future full of opportunities. On Tuesday, they shared the event’s inspiring message with the Board of Education. Listen to their words – and appreciate the event’s positive difference and how it contributes to educational development.
