Our very own Shaira Perez (Class of 2016), a senior at Pueblo Magnet High School, had the opportunity to be among 50 Tucson area administrations, staff members, teachers and students to attend a meeting held at the YWCA Francis McClelland Community Center to hear U.S. Rep. Raul Grijalva discuss the importance of Arizona schools receiving equal access to education.<\/p>\n

College and Career Coordinator, Mr. Ruben Romero, was contacted and invited along with another student to attend the meeting by former Pueblo student Ms. Cassandra Becerra, who now works as office assistant for Grijalva.<\/p>\n

\u201cI chose Shaira [Perez] to come to the meeting with me because she\u2019s ranked number one in her senior class right now,\u201d Romero said. \u201cI like what Congressman Grijalva had to say. He really wants to see a lot of improvements in our schools, including the equality of education across Tucson.\u201d<\/p>\n

During their time together, Perez and Romero had the opportunity to converse about education and its challenges for the future.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was glad to hear that Grijalva is trying to do something for us students and our quality of education,\u201d Perez said. \u201cI\u2019m honored that I got to go to this meeting because I was introduced as an achieving student and felt that the issues were very important.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
