Our Community and Family Events

Community is at the heart of everything we do at Esperanza. We believe childhood should be celebrated and that some of the most meaningful experiences happen when children, families, and educators come together outside of the classroom.

Throughout the year, we host family-centered events that help build relationships and create lasting memories.

One of our favorite traditions is our family pumpkin patch outing. Children, parents, siblings, teachers, and staff come together on a Saturday to explore, choose pumpkins, enjoy fall activities, and spend meaningful time together as a school community.

We also host Lotería Family Day, where families gather to play Lotería, enjoy time together, celebrate culture, and connect with other Esperanza families.

Other school events and experiences include:

Family field trips
Graduation ceremonies
Summer celebrations
Cultural celebrations
Holiday traditions from across Latin America
Classroom showcases

Family engagement activities
Outdoor and nature experiences
Community safety events
Seasonal celebrations
Special school spirit days
Parent gatherings and educational workshops

Our families have also received invitations to participate in special community events with organizations such as the Portland Timbers and the Portland Trail Blazers. These opportunities allow our children, parents, and staff to experience the broader community together while creating fun and meaningful memories.
