On Thursday, April 20th, the ELC hosted a multicultural celebration representing China and Mexico. Artifacts from both countries were displayed for families to view. Students and families had the opportunity to create ornamental fans and paint rocks to represent China, and they also made a traditional Mexican beverage called Aguas Frescas.
A special thanks goes to Keilah Garay, our EL teacher, and Daniela Gutierrez, the family and community liaison, for teaching eight of our students the Mexican Baile Folklorico. The students performed twice for the school community, culminating in all families dancing together at the end.
The event was made even more special with traditional steak and chicken tacos, chips and salsa, dumplings, and fried rice for families to enjoy. A huge thank you to Marisol Pineda, one of our students' mothers, who assisted Ms. Gutierrez with the event.
