March is Women’s History month. Since 1987, this month has been set aside to recognize all women not only for their valuable contributions to society but for teaching important life lessons. Principal of Patrick M. Villano School, Jessica Espinoza, thinks it’s important to appreciate all women.
“I think it’s important because all historical women had a lot of courage and had to take a risk to achieve a goal,” Espinoza said.
There are many women who have shown their bravery and helped change the world like Rosa Parks. She would not give up her seat on a bus in Montgomery, Alabama, during a protest to support civil rights.
Espinoza truly appreciated her grandmother who she called Nanny.
“She taught me so much about believing in myself, standing up for what is right, and cooking,” Espinoza said.
