The source of the claim that she’s first in elementary school is the Hmong Cultural Center.
This center may be relied on for cultural information or even the Hmong Archives but not for news or history. Try the Center for Hmong Studies for news and history like this.
But Kaying became principal only recently—in the Covid-19 “ era.” The lady I got an autograph of was principal of an elementary school in Burnsville, Minnesota about 20 years ago.
There are very few professions that still have no Hmong in. Very few. We already have one at NASA and one on top of the world Olympics.
I’m serious.
