Centinela Valley Union High School District
Celebrates International Jazz Day 2021
The District hosted Conganas Latin-Jazz Band and invited all band students from Hawthorne High School, Lawndale High School and Leuzinger High School to attend a live concert and history of jazz as a field trip. It was their first time back on campus for class since the
pandemic began. The event was live-streamed to over 190 countries on all 7 continents. Thank you Board VP Hugo M. Rojas for setting this up, it was so great to see students back on campus. Photo courtesy of Centinela Valley Union High School District.
Linda Luna from front page
would wake up with this little girl curled
up on the foot of their bed, just to be close
to them. With patience, love, and individual
understanding, eventually, the girl felt safe
enough to sleep in her own bed and opened
up about things in her past.
“Each child is going to be different, and if
you listen to them long enough, you’ll hear
what the root of the problem really is,” she
says. According to her, it’s all about building
trust and being truthful. Luna believes that
God’s gift to her was her natural instinct to
be able to communicate with children, and
it’s her faith that helps her live her life.
Her advice for new parents is this: you
have to sacrifice. The time of raising kids
is so fast, she says, and you only have that
short window of pouring yourself into their
lives in order for them to have something to
fall back on as an adult.
The most rewarding part about this facet
of her life, she says, is getting to see kids
grow into happy and healthy adults. “The
most rewarding part was when they left, and
they called back, and they’d come over and
see me, and they would bring their kids with
them and show me that they made a good
life,” she says fondly.
As for her children, Luna sees her son (now
a teacher in El Segundo) nearly every day.
She is best friends with her daughter-in-law.
She enjoys spending lots of time with her
two granddaughters.
“I have fallen in love with El Segundo,”
says Luna, “It’s a very friendly town.”
Living in Park Vista, she says she enjoys
monthly resident meetings where she can
voice questions and concerns, even through
Covid over Zoom. With optional activities,
trips, parties, and a community room, Luna
loves to explore and be active, and bond with
her community. During Covid, her complex
ensured that all of the seniors had access to
safe and secure vaccine appointments and
transportation.
Prior to having a stroke last year, Luna
would ride her bike five miles, four days a
week. She loves to go to the beach, and eat
at local restaurants, and spend time with her
family, be it a Chinese food night at home
or a birthday party. “The simple things in
life are the things that I like to do.”
Linda’s life so far has been spent loving
and giving to those around her, and her advice
for transitioning into senior years is to walk
through these times softly and embrace the
process. Having spent her seventy years making
decisions for herself and her children, she
says that it’s okay to let her children start to
steer the ship now.
She is looking forward to her granddaughter’s
upcoming eighth-grade graduation. Her
goal for the foreseeable future is to regain her
strength after last year’s stroke, something
with which she’s already made remarkable
progress. “You know,” she ponders, “a life’s
story is very detailed and very intense at
times… I just want to live out the rest of
my life knowing that I gave my very best to
my grandchildren and my son and daughterin
law and that I love the Lord with all
my heart.” •
