  • Today marked the first day back at Equitas Academy for the 2024-2025 school year. We were thrilled and honored to have Councilmember Eunisses Hernandez with us to welcome our students back to school this year. A strong partnership with Pico-Union is at the heart of Equitas and it was truly exciting to continue to deepen our community ties at the start of the year. From greeting our students as part of our special back-to-school tradition to reading with our fourth graders, we are grateful to Councilmember Hernandez for making our first day incredibly memorable for our students, teachers, and staff. We look forward to continuing to drive our mission forward this year, in service of inspiring our scholars to be champions of equity and the next generation of community leaders. Thank you, Councilmember Hernandez, for celebrating back-to-school with us! #Equitas #backtoschool #firstdayofschool #SY2425
