South San Francisco High School

I had the opportunity to visit South San Francisco High School where UMW-SHH alumni Amanda Lemco is now teaching Spanish. She brought SHH to the west coast and started a chapter with some of her students, most notably, Kelly Marston who is the chapter president there. What a group they are!

I did six presentations in one day and talked about SHH to 500 students. The young chapter there is selling coffee and doing all kinds of fundraisers to help the kids.

Our family lived in San Francisco and Oakland when we first arrived in the US and left for the east coast shortly after Cosmo was born in 1985. It was great to be back for the first time since then to the place where I spent my early days in the US.
