Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month
Did You Know?
National Hispanic Heritage Month is September 15 to October 15, 2021! National Hispanic Heritage Month traditionally honors the cultures and contributions of both Hispanic and Latino Americans as we celebrate heritage rooted in all Latin American countries. During this month and throughout the year, the National Park Service and partners share history, heritage, and accomplishments of Hispanic and Latino Americans of past and present.
Yesterday we celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month at NHS with Arepas! What is an Arepa?
A·re·pa /äˈrāpə/: noun; plural noun: arepas
An Arepa is a corn pancake, sweetened or unsweetened, eaten in Venezuela and Colombia.
Maria Montoya (the mother of Sandra Lopez Montoya),was busy in the kitchen making Arepas. Thank you to Yosaharo Castro, Isabella Fernandez, and Sandra Lopez Montoya.
We wish you and your family a very happy and safe weekend ahead!!!
