Ousley Junior High has a new tradition.
鈥淲e were excited to host our first Hispanic Heritage Night at Ousley Junior High,鈥 Ousley鈥檚 principal Amber Price said about their special event last week. 鈥淲e want to celebrate Hispanic culture on our campus.鈥
It may have been their first time, but they went all out. Students, teachers and parents made sure it was an evening to remember with art, dance and tasty treats.
鈥淲e showcased Hispanic literature through student readings, Hispanic art, the Sam Houston Mariachi Band, loter铆a played by parents, students and staff, and various treats donated by Marquez bakery,鈥 Price said.
The turnout for the inaugural event was strong, and Price expects the new tradition to carry on next year.
“We are proud of all our students at Ousley, and it is a privilege to serve a diverse community of culture.鈥
