The Latino Advisory Committee (LAC) recently awarded three Lansing School District (LSD) students $1,000 Scholarships. Due to the pandemic, the Latino Advisory Committee was unable to hold their Annual Latino Achievement Night which has been held every year since 1977. At the event which resembles a Graduation Commencement complete with students in cap and gown, the award winners are announced.
The following students will each receive $1,000 to continue their education:
Nayeli Lissette Arroyo – Eastern High School Juan Morales – Everett High School Carlos-Aldo Lopez Resendiz – Everett High School
The Latino Advisory Committee is always looking for new members. Covid 19 might have slowed the Nation down, but a student’s educational needs will always continue. Coming soon will be a website for the LAC in late September. The LAC membership consists of:
John J. Castillo – President Maximo Anguiano Sr. – Vice President Sol Garcia – Secretary Sein Paul Benavides – Treasurer
Dalia Luera Joe Herrera Jr. Francisco Velasquez Patricia Moreno Dr. Nino Rodriguez Guillermo Z. Lopez – LSD Liason

The Latino Advisory Committee was created in April of 1972 to recognize, educate and empower parents to take a proactive role in the educational and personal development of their children. We work in partnership with the Lansing School District to advocate for Latino families and their students throughout the calendar year.
