Spanish Class and Club Activities for the Month of October
The Spanish Club treated the officers to a thank you dinner and dessert last night at Sabores. They worked really hard on making all the videos for Hispanic Heritage Month, and I was impressed with their efforts. We had a great time! In the first picture, they're pretending to look for Dylan Walton, our Fundraising Director, who couldn't make it because he has been ill. Looking forward to more Spanish Club fun this year!
DÃa de los Muertos Display
The Spanish Club chose NBA Hall of Fame Player, Dikembe Mutombo, to honor this year in the hallway dispaly case for DÃa de los Muertos.
