A description of Latinos in Action, as written by the 22-23 LIA class:

"LIA, or Latinos In Action, is a class about leadership. LIA is not just Latinos. It can be anyone around the world. You don’t have to be Latino to be in LIA. We accept everyone because we welcome everyone in this class. LIA treats each other like family. We see each other as one big family, and we support everyone. We help out those in need with what they need. We help the community with supplies. We also visit local colleges and universities to learn about college and how it will feel like and then be able to teach others about it. We do this to help ourselves and others create plans for our lives and careers. We also have fun. In LIA, we do group activities that include everyone because we think leaving someone out is wrong. Therefore, we provide activities for the whole school so everyone can enjoy themselves. This is what LIA is: we are Latinos In Action."
