Celebrating Asian American and Pacific Islander Month

The Long Beach Unified School District is proud to celebrate Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month!

This important occasion allows us to honor the rich histories, vibrant cultures, and significant contributions of Asian and Pacific Islander Americans in the arts, sciences, politics, activism, and more. In recognizing the challenges faced by the AAPI community and honoring the profound impact AAPI leaders have had, we are fully committed to promoting inclusion and awareness throughout this remarkable month.

As a way to celebrate, LBUSD's Office of Equity, Engagement and Partnerships is hosting an Inaugural Districtwide AAPI Heritage Celebration at Cabrillo High School on Saturday, May 31!

This unforgettable event will bring together students, staff, families, community members, and partners for a joyful day of cultural pride. Get ready for an inspiring experience featuring incredible student performances, local food vendors, and a celebration of AAPI cultures. LBUSD will additionally provide valuable resources to support the rich traditions and diverse cultures of the AAPI community.

At LBUSD, we stand firmly in our support for AAPI students. Our commitment to fostering excellence and equity ensures that every student has access to the resources and opportunities they need to thrive. We strive to create inclusive learning environments where all students feel respected, recognized, and empowered. We wholeheartedly invite everyone in the LBUSD community to join us in honoring AAPI Heritage Month and participate in the AAPI Heritage Celebration at Cabrillo. We look forward to seeing you there!
