Francisco Noyola, vice president of the ABC Unified School District Board, briefed the Hawaiian Gardens City Council on school events, recognitions and upcoming district concerts.
Noyola congratulated Hawaiian Elementary for being recognized as district STEM champions and described recent school activities: open houses, student assemblies, a literacy luau and an effort that celebrated students reading more than 10,000,000 words this year. He noted that Hawaiian's sixth graders recently completed state testing and that the school is pairing STEM field trips with annual college visits to support college and career awareness.
Noyola also provided brief updates from nearby schools: Aloha Elementary's family night and a $3,000 fundraising goal reached by its PTA; Ferguson Elementary's family reading events and participation in the California Spanish Assessment for dual-language immersion students; Melbourne Elementary's student leadership visits and perfect-attendance recognitions; and arts and athletics updates from Artesia High School, including performances and competitions.

The district official thanked the council for the donation to Hawaiian Elementary and encouraged continued community support.
Why it matters: The updates reflect school engagement, student achievement and community events that tie district activities to city programs and family participation.
