Happy Hispanic Heritage Month, JEFCOED family! We are excited to celebrate the culture, traditions, and contributions made by Hispanic and Latino communities!

Our JEFCOED schools are honoring Hispanic Heritage Month with several exciting events, and we can’t wait to share photos and videos of these celebrations.
