When his family first moved to Middletown from Puerto Rico, John Cordero struggled with school and was one of few Hispanic students.
“Before I got off the bus, I would start crying,” he said. “Elementary was kind of a lonely time. I didn’t have anybody to turn to except my parents and my grandfather.”
Eight years later, John is graduating with honors and has formed a group at Middletown High School, Latinos Unidos, dedicated to helping other Hispanic students succeed in school.”*
