Dear DHS staff, students, and families,
Happy National Hispanic Heritage Month! From September 15 to October 15, we recognize and celebrate the many contributions, diverse cultures, and extensive histories of the American Latinx community. The month also celebrates the independence days of several Latin American countries, including Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua on September 15th, Mexico on September 16th, and Chile on September 18th. They also include holidays that recognize Hispanic contributions, such as Virgin Islands-Puerto Rico Friendship Day, which is celebrated in the U.S. Virgin Islands.
We are excited to celebrate heritage months as they enable students to feel connected to their culture and heritage in addition to learning more about other cultures in our diverse world. To that end, DHS group, los Guerreros, were proud to present their pride through their Hispanic Heritage Month display outside the student cafeteria.
Please help me to recognize our amazing students!
