At Project Light Language School, we are joyfully celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month, which runs from September 15 to October 15. This month is an opportunity to honor the rich culture and contributions of Hispanic and Latino Americans. In this spirit, we are featuring Lidis Cuenca, whose story is particularly meaningful to us. Lidis was once a student at our school and later returned as a teacher. She exemplifies the valuable connection between our alumni and current students, sharing her knowledge and experiences with the next generation.
