Padres Latinos Unidos de Brophy, or PLUB, has become not only an active and important parent organization, but a community stalwart that enriches parent and student life for the entire Brophy community. Established in 2012 with the goal of providing support to Latino families – especially those dealing with a language barrier, migrant status or other issues that might prevent a feeling of being fully included in the Brophy experience – PLUB has become a lifeline to those families, and so much more. With PLUB’s support, more Latino families have applied to Brophy where, currently, one-quarter of our student body identify as Hispanic or Latino.
We thank PLUB for the annual Posada; for celebrations of El Día de Families, El Día del Niño, and Dia de las Muertas; for their involvement in the celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month with the Taquiza Tailgate celebration; for their support of Hermanos Unidos de Brophy, one of the largest and most active student groups; and most of all, for their outreach to families who might at first feel reticent to get involved, until PLUB opens doors and paves pathways.
