Wow! Congratulations Los Banos Junior High School student Yadira Estrada Barajas for winning the VFW District 9 Patriot’s Pen Essay contest which “encourages young minds to examine America’s history, along with their own experiences in modern American society." The theme for 2023-24 was “How are you inspired by America?” Way to go Yadira! Excellent story in the Westside Express:

January 23 is Ed Roberts Day in honor of the disability rights pioneer. Contracting polio at age14, Roberts was the first student with severe disabilities to attend the University of California, Berkeley. He would go on to be among the most important advocates for accessibility.
We strive to help our students grow into well-rounded individuals with the skills to succeed in life no matter where they go. We are so proud of all our achievers at every LBUSD campus.
Today we honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the profound impact he had on the quest for liberty and justice for all people.
Wishing everyone a safe and prosperous New Year! Enjoy the remainder of your Winter break!
Today in 1865, one of the most important moments in our Nation's quest to create a more perfect union occurred when the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, abolishing slavery, was ratified.
