This year's Cultural Heights will take place on Wednesday, April 15th in the MUROur country of focus is Mexico


Our PTA board brainstormed ~10 candidate countries, then students in 3rd-6th grades had the opportunity to provide their input. Mexico was the country of greatest student interest, so we're excited to take their lead in celebrating our neighbor to the south this year!
