As we continue in our celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, today we are excited to feature a new club at BBCHS, Latino Student Union (LSU). LSU was founded in the Spring of 2022 with the goal of providing a safe and comfortable environment for Latinx students to come together and share thoughts, feelings, and views, while also promoting awareness of Latinx culture.LSU has grown tremendously in the short time that they have been established. Their efforts have made Hispanic Heritage Month at BBCHS something special for all students. We cannot wait to see how they continue to shape and influence the culture at BBCHS throughout the rest of the school year!LSU Leadership:President - Jessica Calderon PhilipsVice President – Zoe JordanOfficer – Emily VazquezStaff Sponsor: Idalia Marin
