PBS SoCal Congratulates Local Heroes Award winners Virginia Nguyen and Stacy Yung.
-We are community builders, and through that, magic happens.
-Teaching in the classroom is beautiful, and it moves individuals, but Stacy and I needed to move systems, and that's what educate to empower is.
It's meant to move teachers, and other educators, and students, and community members, so that together, we can transform education to widen the story of America.
