Each year we celebrate the diversity of our community. In October, the AIS library focused on Hispanic heritage. Celebrating Hispanic communities means discovering a rich part of the world where the Spanish language is at its core. We have a wonderful group of Spanish speaking teachers and students here at AIS. Get to know them better!
We want to honor the history, culture, and influence of past generations that came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central & South America. Students dove into this journey by participating in library contests and challenges.
