Student Outreach Liaison (SOL), Angela Blanco: The SOL assists and coordinates district and school sites with additional student support programs. The goals are to address the needs of all students, with a primary focus on unduplicated student counts (LCAP/LCFF).
These goals are met by:
- Examining and evaluating the ASSETs before/after school grant expansion to additional Kern High Schools.
- Coordinating a district-wide Student Advisory Council to strengthen the voice for all students at the district level, including unduplicated youth.
- Work with school sites and KHSD Parent Education Liaison to align community services/providers, bilingually (Spanish) if necessary, that help the students academic endeavors, promote higher education, and assist the family’s well-being and therefore enabling student success for all students including unduplicated youth.
- Assisting bilingually (Spanish) if necessary in maintaining communication with student and community by being present at resource fairs and having bilingual information, flyers and certificated staff present, in order to reach further in building positive relationships with the community at large.
