Oscar de la Hoya has many accomplishments to be proud of. Now, he has a high school in Boyle Heights, California named after him. And not just any high school…a charter high school. De la Hoya gave $1 million dollars to launch the school, which is the first secondary school in the Green Dot Public School District. The boxer gave an additional $3.5 million dollar donation last year, and the 550 kids who will be attending this school no doubt appreciate Mr. De la Hoya’s generosity.
