During its May 19 meeting, the District 88 Board of Education, along with the administration, named American Family Insurance as a Business Partner. The Business Partner program acknowledges companies, organizations and individuals for their support in building futures for District 88 students and helping to accomplish the district’s mission and vision.
Leticia Herrera, Agent and Owner with American Family Insurance, is a prime example of an individual and company working with us to achieve our goals. Herrera and her assistant, Julisa Guillen, enthusiastically participate in District 88’s Heritage Spanish Career Fluency program, which helps students develop their skills in professional settings and introduces them to various career paths, while enhancing their biliteracy.
The Heritage Spanish Career Fluency program wouldn’t be possible without the support of individuals like Herrera and Guillen. They have been incredibly generous and flexible and never say “no” when asked whether they can take on more students. They have welcomed more than 30 District 88 pupils into their company.
