Hispanic Heritage Month: Dressing Like a Famous Person

During Hispanic Heritage Month, staff and students were invited to "Dress Like a Famous Hispanic Person" as part of our school celebrations.

 




Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated annually from September 15-October 15 to honor the heritage, culture, and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America.




Our dress up day was a time of sharing stories, making connections, and having fun while learning.  Students shared their favorite musicians, heroes, or famous Hispanic Americans while they dressed in clothing and accessories to represent these personalities.  Teachers and staff wore traditional clothing and jerseys and explained their attire choices to their students.
