Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Ritmo y Sabor is a dance group at our high school that shares its culture and dances with other schools here in Colorado Springs. We do a lot of community service where we go to other schools, dance, and present our flags and Hispanic heritage with pride.

We are looking for a way to have our t-shirts with our club names so we can go around and do more community service representing our club.

We want to keep the pride of our heritage and dance our roots, keeping a smile on our faces.

Ms. Bates Harrison High School Grades 9-12
