Adair County High School observes Cinco de Mayo Students Ana Perez, Maria Valadez, and Martisha Carey create authentic decorations. Ms. Wimmer's Art classes, along with Mr. Woods Spanish classes, collaborated to create authentic pinatas that were displayed throughout the lobby. Mr. Gay sets tone for occasion with Mexican music Click on headline for story with photo(s) By Shamarie Claiborne Ana Perez, Maria Valadez, and Martisha Carey worked very hard to create and put up decorations in the Adair County High School cafeteria to expose their fellow students to the Mexican holiday Cinco de Mayo, which translates to 5th of May. Ms. Wimmer's Art classes, along with Mr. Woods Spanish classes, collaborated to create authentic pinatas that were displayed throughout the lobby. Cinco de Mayo was originally celebrated to signify the victory over French forces in 1862 in Puebla Mexico, but during our modern era it is used to promote the Mexican heritage and culture. Assistant Principal, Travis Gay, helped the day out by setting up and playing Mexican music. The lunchroom atmosphere was a welcomed distraction from the stresses created at the end of a school year. The true highlight of each lunch period was when one of the beautiful pinatas were filled with candy and students had a chance to get a few treasures that were locked inside!! It was truly diversity at its best -- a huge thank you to all the students who helped Ms. Wimmer and Mr. Wood put the event together and I can say we are all looking forwarded to next year's Cinco De Mayo. - Shamarie Claiborne, Media Publicity Coordinator, Adair County School District This story was posted on 2014-05-07 09:32:10
