I first learned about Mendez v. Westminster as a college student in my 20s. Years later, as a school board member and city councilman, it became a dream to create a place where busloads of students from and around Orange County could learn about ordinary people who fought for justice and changed history.

Today, that dream lives on in my hometown of Westminster. The Mendez Tribute Monument Park stands as a lasting testament to Orange County’s pivotal role in desegregating California schools, a place where our civil rights legacy is not only remembered but also celebrated for generations to come.

Discover the story behind some powerful monuments in Orange County and the civil rights case that inspired them.ABOUT INSIDE CALIFORNIA EDUCATION------------...

National Hispanic Heritage Month is more than just a time to honor and celebrate notable figures in our nation’s past and present; it’s also a time to honor our most cherished value, La Familia.

On that note, I would like to honor my parents, Sr. & Sra. Sergio & Maria Contreras for their countless sacrifices and contributions to our family.

Mom and Dad risked everything, leaving everything behind in Mexico to start anew in Orange County, eventually becoming U.S. citizens. While Dad worked the graveyard shift as a Disneyland custodian and Mom worked on the factory line, in the classroom as a paraeducator, and took care of six kids, they were able to buy a three-bedroom home to raise six children.
