Hispanic Advisory Council

Phone: 720-641-2005 
The Hispanic Advisory Council (HAC) is a group of Adams 12 community members who value the richness and diversity that our Hispanic culture brings to the educational system in Adams 12 Five Star Schools. We are Adams 12 parents, grandparents, students, district employees and local businesses who believe in diversity and equality for all students.

The mission of the HAC is to lead and influence positive change in education and the quality of life for the community members of Adams 12 Five Star Schools.  We work to advocate for students, parents, families and staff who may be placed in an unacceptable situation due to their ethnicity, cultural values and/or differences in language. 

The HAC also coordinates and hosts annual awards ceremonies recognizing students, staff and community members for their achievement and contribution to the Hispanic Community.  The awards include presentation of scholarships to deserving Adams 12 high school seniors who wish to attend college, trade school and post secondary education.
