Your Story Belongs in the Spotlight — APIDA Heritage Month 2026

Posted on 03/21/2026

APIDA Heritage Month is in May and San Diego Unified wants to celebrate the real, lived stories of our Asian, Pacific Islander, and Desi American students.

Not a highlight reel. Not a stereotype. Just your story. Your family, your culture, your community. If you've ever felt like your community's story wasn't being told at school, here's a chance to tell it yourself.

Selected students will be interviewed and featured in the districtwide APIDA Heritage Month campaign.

Fill out the form by April 22.
