Hispanic students find fun, support with club – Maryland
Tagged: Baltimore, Maryland, Puerto Rican, studentPosted on: December 17th, 2006“Maria Camacho, 13, an eighth-grader at Oakland Mills Middle School, was born in New York City, but did not speak English until she was 5 years old, she said. Her Dominican mother and Puerto Rican father spoke Spanish at home so that is what Maria learned.
After moving to Maryland and enrolling at school, she joined Ritmo Latino, a club for Hispanic students. This is her third year as a member of the club, which meets Wednesdays after school. She has made a lot of friends in the group, she said, and she has especially enjoyed the guest speakers, who talk about their careers.”
