Amalia Manard, a freshman and proud member of the WT Multicultural Club, kicked off our weekly Wednesday announcements with a powerful message of courage and pride.
Sharing her Dominican roots from San Pedro de Macorís, Amalia introduced the phrase: “El que no corre, no se embala” — “if you don’t run, you won’t have momentum.” Her words encouraged all Wildcats to be bold, embrace challenges, and celebrate who we are and where we come from.
Amalia is pictured with Principal Laganas and fellow club member Jair Martinez.
Special thanks to Multicultural Club Advisor Susannah DiMauro for guiding these important celebrations! 💙💛
