SUMMARY:11th Annual Hispanic Heritage Month Celebration - “Proud of my heritage”
DESCRIPTION:From the HHM Committee:Let’s continue inspiring our young people to be proud of who they are and where they come from!\n\n\nThis beautiful celebration began in 2016 at Breed Middle School’s Lecture Hall\, with the support of our former Principal\, Mrs. Julie Louf\, now the Deputy Superintendent and Dr. olly Cohen\, Lynn Public Schools Superintendent. What began as a celebration at Breed has grown into a meaningful Lynn community tradition\, bringing together students\, families\, educators\, and community organizations to celebrate our heritage\, culture\, identity\, and contributions.\nFlag Parade:\n3:30pm at Lynn Common \nCeremony:\n4pm in the Lynn Auditorium\nGuest Speaker: Dr. Raul Zegarra\, Professor at Harvard University\n“Orgullo Hispano 2026” Award\nLatin-American Music\, dances and food!\n\nWHY DO WE CELEBRATE?\nBecause sometimes first- and second-generation Hispanic\, Asian\, African youth may feel ashamed of their language\, their ancestors\, or their heritage. We want to remind them that their heritage is not something to hide—it is something to be proud of! Identity is an important part of their self-esteem.\n\nAs immigrants and members of the community\, we have a responsibility to inspire our young people and help them recognize the incredible contributions of Immigrants (Hispanic\, Asian\, African\, etc.) throughout history and today.\n\n Our language is our strength.\n\n\n Our heritage is our identity.\n Our history is our inspiration.\n Our youth are our future.\n\n\n\nCome celebrate our heritage\, our contributions\, and our future!\n\n\n\n\n\nHHM Committee:\n\nSean Reid\, MA State Rep.\nCoco Alinsug\, Pdte. Lynn City Council\nObed Matul\, Lynn City Councilor\nMaria Carrasco\, Former member of the LPS School Committee\nEduardo Suarez\, Pastor of “La Profecia” Church\nPeter Barros\, Director La Vida Scholar\nJose Manuel Encarnacion\, Community Leader\nEsther Mariano\, Community Leader\nMaritza Jansen\, President of Latina Center Maria\nMariela Grandez\, Vice-President of Latina Center Maria\nMagalie Torres-Rowe\, Executive Director & Founder of Latina Center Maria and Escuela Latina
