Nearly 32% Of CCS Students Are Hispanic. How Is the District Serving Them?
By Hannah McClellan and Victoria Johnson, Chatham News + Record Staff
Sitting in Jordan-Matthews’ auditorium nearly four years ago, Mexican immigrant Guadalupe Tavera remembers thinking, “My God, why don’t I know English?”
Her son, Ervin Martinez, was just about to start 9th grade at J-M, and the school held a meeting to inform parents about its requirements and curricula. While various school staff presented in English, a school interpreter translated the information for Tavera and other Spanish-speaking parents via translation headsets. Even so, Tavera said she didn’t understand the meeting.
Chatham Vaccine Providers Work To Ensure Vaccine Equity for Hispanic Residents
When Chatham Hospital’s Jesus Ruiz became the first person and first Latino in the county to get vaccinated on Dec. 16, UNC Health made its stance clear: vaccine equity and access would be top priority.
“It’s very important to get the coronavirus vaccines,” Ruiz said in a Spanish-language video Chatham Hospital shared on Facebook a week later. “In part it’s another weapon against this virus that unfortunately has devastated our community, so I recommend that everyone get vaccinated when the vaccine becomes available to all of us.”
SILER CITY Call them vintage. Or just call them old. But for Jordan-Matthews High School media coordinator Rose Pate, that large pile of old Life magazines that had remained untouched for decades was just gathering dust. Let’s face it: They were trash.
But that didn’t mean she was ready to bury them in a landfill. “We needed to clear the library storeroom early last year to make a workspace for teachers and so we simply needed to get rid of them,” Pate said. “After give-aways to our history teachers, the next obvious spot was the art department.”
Down the hall and around the corner, some art students studying under teacher Rahma Mateen-Mason worked in the studio at the time, sorting through the stacks, pulling images and words for their own collages. After that, when there were so many issues left untouched, Mateen-Mason knew exactly where to send them next: her friend John R. Miles III.
