From September 15 to October 15, REACH proudly celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month by honoring the cultures, histories, and contributions of Latino communities—through experiences that were vibrant, meaningful, and deeply engaging.
Our Elementary Campus kicked off the celebration with an unforgettable folklórico dance performance. The music, movement, and colorful attire transformed the assembly into a living history lesson. Scholars watched in awe as dancers shared stories through every step, learning the meaning behind traditional costumes and rhythms. Many scholars joined the celebration by wearing cultural attire, filling the hallways with pride, curiosity, and joy.
At the Middle School campus, learning came alive through language. Under the leadership of Ms. Harris, scholars participated in a Hispanic-inspired dining experience where Spanish wasn’t just encouraged—it was required. From greetings to food orders and polite conversation, scholars practiced real-world language skills with confidence and courage. The room buzzed with excitement as scholars realized how powerful their growing language skills truly are.
These moments reflected what REACH does best: blending culture, academics, and community into learning experiences scholars will never forget. A heartfelt thank you to Ms. Harris and our Hispanic Heritage Committee for creating spaces where culture is honored, voices are celebrated, and learning is joyful.
