Ana Alonso oral history transcript

Title

Ana Alonso oral history transcript

Description

A transcript of an oral history of Ana Alonso, student at Century High School, on Hispanics in the Hillsboro schools. Ana emigrated from Mexico City with her family after her father had already been here. Later the family settled in Hillsboro because there were more opportunities in the area and other family was located in Hillsboro. Ana participated in ESL during 7th and 8th grade and found it very helpful. She explains that she would like to see more programs for Hispanic students at Century High School. At the time of the interview, Ana was on the dance team and participated in Jag TV doing the Spanish News. She feels that she is role model for other Hispanic students. Another activity Miss Alonso was involved in was Project Plus, which has been very supportive in helping with college and scholarships. She has also been president of the club Latinos Sin Fronteras.
