Kayla Velasquez, Osseo-Fairchild's MS/HS Spanish teacher, recently traveled to Guatemala as part of the Board of Directors for the Bucks County Organization for Intercultural Advancement (BCOIA), a nonprofit dedicated to expanding educational access for students and supporting teachers. During the trip, her team delivered more than 700 bags of school supplies to local schools and hosted a professional development seminar in Spanish for over 250 Mayan teachers from the Highlands. Mrs. Velasquez spent the week collaborating with teachers and educational leaders from both the US and Guatemala, as well as visiting rural schools and meeting students to gain valuable insight into classrooms and communities within the country. She brought these experiences back to her O-F students through real-world connections in the classroom. Her HS Spanish classes explored what school looks like in Guatemala compared to the US, while examining barriers to educational access both globally and within their own communities. Students also received authentic souvenirs—bracelets and lanyards she brought back from the Guatemalan mercados—which helped bring the culture and experience to life in a memorable way! #ThunderProud
