Experience American culture beyond the classroom.
At LSI, we believe that learning English goes far beyond textbooks. It’s about living the language — and immersing yourself in American culture. That’s why we encourage our international students to participate in important cultural events, like Juneteenth.
What Is Juneteenth?
Juneteenth, celebrated every year on June 19th, marks the end of slavery in the United States. On this day in 1865, the last enslaved people in Texas were finally informed of their freedom — more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation.
Now recognized as a U.S. federal holiday, Juneteenth is a day to honor freedom, equality, and African American history and culture.
Why Juneteenth Matters for English Students
As an international student learning English in Los Angeles, Juneteenth offers a valuable opportunity to:
- Discover an important part of U.S. history
- Improve your listening and speaking skills during real-life events
- Connect with people from different backgrounds
- Understand American values and cultural diversity
At our school, we encourage students to take part in local experiences that make language learning exciting and meaningful.
