QUIZ: September, Wednesday 21

**** As part of the festivities for the Independence Day celebration, we will have a Potluck Breakfast or Snack

on Tuesday, September 13. 

In the Secondary (Middle and High School) teachers will send a notification assigning what each student

should bring to share with their grade for their breakfast.  

We are also encouraging children (and teachers too!) to wear “Honduran” clothes on this day.

This may be a typical Honduran outfit (traje tipico), the National Soccer Team sports outfit,

any creative dress up that is representative of Honduras,

or simply blue and white. 

If you have questions or doubts, please feel free to contact your child’s teacher.
