Good morning, Hialeah.

South Florida’s 5000 Role Models of Excellence left Miami International Airport Thursday morning and are now attending the 55th Annual Legislative Conference for the Congressional Black Caucus at Capitol Hill, where they will visit schools+museums and historic sites before returning Sunday.

A recent NBC6 survey found that over 75 percent of teachers in our area note falling enrollment, with Hialeah educator Thais Garcia explaining that student fears of immigration enforcement (and private school vouchers) may be keeping children home; school officials say campuses remain safe.

Deputy Luis Hernandez from Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office secured a UFC contract by submitting Hugo Guillon in the second round at Meta APEX in Las Vegas on September 15, and his record improved to 8-0 after eight years of training.

He will now compete with the world’s largest MMA promotion.
