With the help of some spectacular teachers \u2013 Mariana Ramirez, Alice Im, Nicki Morales, and Enrique Legaspi \u2013 and Roosevelt High School principal Jose Espinoza, these students have been learning how to use ArcGIS online on HP workstations and create presentations with Story Maps. The first year of the program saw 80 students using maps to start transforming their Boyle Heights neighborhood. They looked at brown fields and green spaces in the community, and presented their findings at the Esri User Conference on the plenary mainstage.<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6861\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6861\" style=\"width: 1120px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-6861   \" src=\"http:\/\/www.esri.com\/about\/newsroom\/app\/uploads\/files\/2016\/04\/iamangel1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1120\" height=\"505\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6861\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The i.am.angel Foundation and Esri have worked together for the past three years to assist high school juniors in STEM and igniting a passion to continue learning.
