As a valued advocate for farmworkers and the broader Latino community in Oregon, we are thrilled to extend to you an exclusive invitation to the monumental 50th Anniversary Celebration of Colegio Cesar Chavez before the event becomes officially public.

Together with the Colegio Cesar Chavez Alumni and founders, we at PODER - Oregon’s Latino Leadership Network, aim to honor the incredible legacy and achievements of this revolutionary institution that transformed the educational landscape for Chicano and Latino communities. Established in 1973 and open for a decade, it was was the first accredited, independent four-year Chicano/Latino college in the United States history!

In recognition of your significant contributions, we are pleased to offer you complimentary access to the morning kick-off breakfast, which typically costs $30.

Join us as we share Oregon's farmworker movement and history. Meet alumni, enjoy live entertainment, and storytelling from the founders who helped build this once in a lifetime college. We will reminisce on Oregon Latino History that became a catalyst for equal educational opportunities for Chicano and minority students in Oregon.

We hope you can join us and we invite you to stay for the afternoon where we will open the event to the public. There will be food, music, entertainment, games, a Colegio Cesar Chavez Exhibit, workshops, and more!

Together, let's celebrate, remember, and rekindle the spirit of Colegio Cesar Chavez, as we honor our shared past, engage in our vibrant present, and envision an inclusive, equitable future.

Dr. Gustavo Balderas

Superintendent

Beaverton School District
Kick-off Breakfast Keynote Speaker

Dr. Balderas is a first-generation son of Mexican immigrants who worked in the agricultural fields of California, Oregon and Washington. “I understand first-hand some of the barriers that students face in Beaverton schools — those in poverty and those navigating a new language and culture. These experiences will help me connect with students and families and help identify ways to meet the needs of our students furthest from educational justice.

His numerous awards include the 2021 Champion for Equity Award from the Association of Latino Administrators and Superintendents, 2020 Oregon Superintendent of the Year Award from the Coalition of Oregon School Administrators, and 2020 National Superintendent of the Year Award from the American School Superintendents Association.
