Barona Tribe Grant Helps Longfellow Spanish Immersion Magnet School

Longfellow Spanish Immersion Magnet School has received a $5,000 grant from the Barona Band of Mission Indians.

The grant is part of the tribe's effort to "make a difference" in local communities. The funds can be used for items such as supplies, books and computers.

On April 1, Edwin "Thorpe" Romero, chairman of the Barona Tribal Council, and State Sen. Christine Kehoe (D-San Diego), visited the school to present the check to Cynthia Arce, principal of Longfellow.
