WASHOUGAL — Bibiana Picho-Garcia has a new person to commiserate with this school year while doing homework: her mother.
“She always asks me if this is what I go through at school,” said Picho-Garcia, 16, a Washougal High School junior. “I’m like, ‘Yes, you finally understand me.’ ”
Picho-Garcia also helps her mother, Esmeralda Garcia-Marquez, with homework on occasion, specifically on some translation issues.
