WHY I GO: Mario Valadez
“It’s important for educators, teachers, and community members to work together to improve the public education system for our students because they are our future.”
–Mario Valadez
At GO we are fortunate to work with a great network of Oakland people from all walks of life, including families, educators, community leaders, elected officials, and concerned citizens.
In what will be a monthly series, we decided to introduce you to some of those fantastic people that care just as deeply about public education as we do.
In this edition, we meet Mario Valadez, one of the first graduates from Think College Now Elementary School, and a current college student.
Take it away Mario.
