Hispanic Heritage Month: September 15-October 15
During this Month we celebrate the accomplishments of Hispanics in the United States. A Hispanic or Latino is a person who came, or whose family came, from a Spanish speaking country. Lynn Allen, Director of the Multicultural Center located at Julian Middle School came to Beye School to talk to the students about the cultures of several Spanish speaking countries. On your right you can see some pictures of her visit. The students listened very attentively and had a lot of questions!
