Latinos Stand Up! Movement students at Global Connections High School planned and facilitated their second annual Parent Outreach Spring BBQ on Sunday, June 1. The event was held at Angle Lake Park in SeaTac.
Over 50 parents, family members, and community members attended the event. Students served a delicious parent-prepared feast of chicken fajitas, tortillas, beans, and rice, and then broke the attendees up into three rotating groups who attended student-led workshops on parent involvement, gang prevention, and the Dream Act.
This is the third LSU parent event this school year. The LSU club members plan to continue their parent outreach efforts next school year, and hope to involve more parents in the sessions.
