Our major accomplishments include organizing various events that advance education in our community: - The Latino Conference, - The Latino Honor Roll Celebration - The Latino College Fair, and - The Latino Education Summit. Our culminating event each school year is the LATA Scholarship Dinner/Dance, when we honor our deserving twelfth graders. We are most proud of the thousands of dollars in scholarships we have given to worthy Latino students. They are our future!!
