"Gotitas del Saber" Podcast Celebrates 100 Episodes
The Gotitas del Saber podcast has reached an exciting milestone — 100 episodes! — and the First Program community came together to celebrate this incredible achievement.
Since its creation, 246 First Program students have proudly hosted the podcast, showcasing their talents and growing confidence in Spanish. Through each episode, students demonstrate their ability to speak Spanish, interview adults, share information, and practice an important value: giving credit where credit is due. The podcast has become a meaningful platform for student voice, leadership, and learning.
Over the course of 100 episodes, around 80 community members have participated as guests, including teachers, administrators, kitchen staff, and maintenance staff. These conversations have empowered students to ask thoughtful questions, engage with adults across the school community, and see themselves as capable communicators.
Gotitas del Saber has done more than build language skills — it has brought the community together. The podcast celebrates student accomplishments while highlighting the contributions of the Latino and Hispanic community and the importance of the Spanish language.
To mark the occasion, Pequeño Dalton joined in the celebration by coloring and wearing their own Gotita. Students listened to past episodes, shared which ones they had hosted, and reflected on new things they had learned along the way.
Reaching 100 episodes is a powerful reminder of what happens when student voices are centered, languages are celebrated, and a community comes together to learn from one another.
