Q1: Hispanic Heritage Month
Q1: Hispanic Heritage Month
In Quarter 1, we focused on celebrating Spanish Heritage Month which spanned from September 15 - October 15. Two events were planned for this special occasion; A Spanish potluck breakfast and a musical presentation done by Mariachi Hidalgo. Both events were successful. See the pictures below. One of the main objectives of celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month was to highlight the Spanish culture so students become even more aware and appreciative of the culture that surrounds them.
