Parent & Family Center

Hello! My name is Dolores De Leon. This is my third school year at Independence High School as the Parent & Family Center Liaison and School Community Specialist. I have been with the Kern High School District for over 15 years. I look forward to helping so many of you. I've had the pleasure of meeting so many of you already. My duty as your liaison is to build the bridge between our parents/families and our campus. I am here for any questions you may have or help you may need. Thank you so much!
