In the aftermath of the temporary closure of Manual High School in 2006, Brandi Perez continues to grapple with the impact of losing her school, her friends, and her sense of community. Having been a student at Manual High during the school’s challenging times, she recalls the stigma associated with attending a school known for its struggling academic performance and declining enrollment.
