Work with members in your community and make a difference

We are a collaborative of HYS alumni, supporters, and community leaders dedicated to the revival of HYS.

Who we are

To serve as a valued and respected community resource which inspires and prepares traditionally under-represented students to expect and achieve excellence in education, personal and professional development and civic engagement.

The IHYSAA inspires and guides the development of talented Latino and other under-represented students into well-prepared, effective and confident civic-minded leaders by providing events, activities and a sustained reinforcement of this cultural expectation. The HYSAA brokers community talent and family involvement to provide the necessary environment for holistic and sustainable success.

"... I wasn't one of those all-star students... Even if I hadn't received my PhD, I know that the symposium made a huge positive impact on my choices...
...I did... take away the most important message, "Si se puede!"
