There has never been a school year like 2020-2021. Due to the pandemic, computer screens became classrooms, parents became teachers, and graduations became online events. Immigrant families navigated multiple, and often unique, challenges. They'll share their experiences during "Suitcase Stories: Reflections from the School Year" on Thursday, June 3, from 7 - 8 p.m. The free virtual event will be on Zoom and Facebook Live.
